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 side impact modules are in the driver's and passenger's seats. The side air bag 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 side air bag module during servicing. The shorting bar is disengaged when the connector is connected.
