Kia Picanto: Airbag Module / Side Airbag (SAB) Module
Description and operation
The
Side Airbags (SAB) are installed inside the front seat and protects the
driver and passenger from danger when side crash occurs. The SRSCM
determines deployment of side airbag by using Side Impact Sensor (SIS)
signal.

attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the airbag module (squib)
even if you are using the specified tester. If the circuit resistance is
measured with a tester, accidental airbag deployment will result in
serious personal injury. |
