Air Bag Electronic Crash Sensor (ECS) Module
The air bag Electronic Crash Sensor (ECS) module:
^ discriminates between an event that warrants frontal air bag deployment and an event that does not.
^ signals the inflators to deploy the air bags in the event of a deployable crash.
^ monitors the air bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) for faults.
^ illuminates the air bag indicator if a fault is detected.
^ flashes the air bag indicator to indicate the Lamp Fault Code (LFC) detected.
^ communicates through the Data Link Connector (DLC) the current and historical Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
^ activates a chime in the Generic Electronic Module (GEM) if the air bag indicator is not available and another SRS system fault exists.
