Kia Stinger CK: Airbag Module / Side Airbag (SAB) Module
Description and operation
Installed inside the front seat, the side airbags (SAB) protect the driver and
front passenger from danger in the event of a side crash. The SRSCM determines deployment
of side airbag based on Side Impact Sensor (SIS) signal.
|
Never 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
