Passenger’s seat weight sensors
N00418000322
The passenger’s seat weight sensors are attached to the seat
rails and provide the airbag control unit with information
regarding the weight on the front passenger seat. The airbag
control unit controls deployment of the passenger’s front
airbag in accordance with the information it receives from this
sensor.
The passenger’s front airbag will not deploy in an impact when
the weight on the seat is sensed to be less than approximately
66 pounds (30 kg). In this case, the passenger airbag off indica-
tor will come on.
Refer to “Passenger’s airbag off indicator” on page 2-51.
If there is a problem involving the passenger seat weight sen-
sors, the SRS warning light in the instrument panel will come
on. Refer to “SRS warning light/display” on page 2-52.
