Description

For normal operation of the airbag system, the SRSCM detects DTCs for the Occupant Classification System (OCS). If the seat is occupied, the OCS determines the occupant status and sends a signal to the SRSCM via CAN. The SRSCM recognizes the signal as 2 (two) different classifications: 1 (empty or small occupant with child restraint system), 2 (occupied by a large or small occupant). Using this signal, the ACU determines whether to deploy the PAB (passenger airbag) or not.
