SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS: AIRBAG SYSTEM: B1627/82,B1628/82,B1647/82,B1648/82,B1697/82,B1698/82: Lost Communication with Front Passenger Side - Side Airbag Sensor Assembly
B1698/82 - Passenger Side Door Side Airbag Sensor Initialization Incomplete

DESCRIPTION

The front passenger side - side collision circuit (to determine deployment of the front seat side airbag assembly RH and curtain shield airbag assembly RH) is composed of the center airbag sensor assembly, side airbag sensor RH (for rear side) and side airbag sensor RH (for front side).

The side airbag sensor RH (for rear side) and side airbag sensor RH (for front side) detect impacts to the vehicle and send signals to the center airbag sensor assembly to determine if the airbag should be deployed.

Theses DTCs are stored when a malfunction is detected for the front passenger side - side collision circuit (to determine deployment of the front seat side airbag assembly RH and curtain shield airbag assembly RH).
