Kia Stinger CK: Airbag Module / Knee Airbag (KAB) Module
Description and operation
| Description |
Installed inside the crash pad, the knee airbag (KAB) protects the driver in the event of a frontal crash. The SRSCM determines if and when to deploy the KAB.
Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the airbag module (squib) even if you are using a specified tester. If the circuit resistance is measured with a tester, accidental airbag deployment will result in serious personal injury. |
