Instrument Panel (I/P) Module

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Suzuki Swift +, 2008 Pontiac Wave, and 2008 Chevrolet Aveo. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: Refer to SIR Caution .

The instrument panel (I/P) module is on the passenger part of the I/P. The I/P module contains an igniter charge and a gas generator to inflate the folded air bag.

The air bag connector contains a shorting bar, which makes the circuit shorted when the connector is disconnected. The shorting bar prevents current from travelling through the I/P module during servicing. The shorting bar is disengaged when the connector is connected.
