3239521 - E7030 AIRBAG - Functional description

Functional description

The Air Bag system control unit M60 receives a supply controlled by the ignition (15/54) at pin 15 from the line protected by shunt fuse B30 up to 3/98 or B32 from 3/98. up to 2/99 or from fuse F5 from supplementary fuse box B98A from 2/99. Pin 14 is connected to the specific earth C50 , like pin 30, on "complete" versions, i.e. with a passenger Air Bag. (on versions with a driver's Air Bag only, pin 30 is not connected).

When an impact of a set severity (determined by the control software) is detected, the control unit sends control signals to set off the modules:

  • to driver's Air Bag Q9 , via the steering wheel clockspring Q10 (from pins 1 and 2):
  • to passenger airbag Q11 (from pins 3 and 4);
  • to driver's side pretensioner Q20 (from pins 10 and 11) and passenger side pretensioner Q21 (from pins 6 and 7).

Functional description

Pins 23 and 27 are connected to the sensor in the seat for disabling the passenger Air Bag K65 .

Functional description

Pins 5 and 24 are connected to the passenger Air Bag disabling switch H75 . When the system self-diagnostic function detects a fault or an impact is detected, control unit M60 sends a signal - from pin 13 - to the airbag failure warning light located in instrument panel E30 . This signal causes the warning light to come on because instrument E30 is supplied via the ignition (INT) from a line protected by the control light fuse B11 up to 2/99 or by fuse F4 of supplementary fuse box B98B from 2/99. Self-diagnostic data may be read by connecting the unit to connector R10 : this receives signals from pin 9 of control unit M60 through the appropriate tester line. Pin 20 of M60 sends the signal for the "passenger Air Bag disabled" warning light, located in the speedometer E10 . This signal causes the warning light to come on because instrument E30 is supplied via the ignition (INT) from a line protected by the control light fuse B11 up to 2/99 or by fuse F4 of supplementary fuse box B98B from 2/99.
