Airbag System (Except TMC Made)





SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM: AIRBAG SYSTEM (except TMC Made): B1622/81,B1623/81,B1632/81,B1633/81,B1642/81: Lost communication with Side Airbag Sensor RH
B1642/81 - Lost Communication with Side Satellite Sensor Bus RH

DESCRIPTION

The side collision sensor RH 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 and rear airbag sensor RH.

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

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