Air Bag Resistor: Description and Operation
SAFETY CANOPY BRIDGE RESISTORCAUTION: Do not deactivate the side air curtain module or safety canopy module circuit by removing the bridge resistor from the electrical connector.
If the side air curtain or safety canopy bridge resistor is removed, an open circuit fault will be generated by the restraints control module (RCM).
If a restraint system diagnostic tool is installed at the side air curtain or safety canopy electrical connector, a low resistance fault will be generated.
The safety canopy bridge resistor:
- is equipped on vehicles without safety canopy modules.
- must not be removed during deactivation.
- is located at the LH C-pillar.
