DTC 12

Circuit Description

The squib circuit consists of the center airbag sensor assembly, spiral cable, steering wheel pad (squib), front passenger airbag assembly and the seat belt pretensioners. It causes the SRS to deploy when the SRS deployment conditions are satisfied.
The front airbag sensor detects the deceleration force in a frontal collision and is located in the front fender on the left and right sides. Diagnostic trouble code 12 is recorded when a B + short is detected in the squib circuit or the front airbag sensor circuit.
