The RCM includes a backup power supply. This
feature provides sufficient backup power to deploy the
airbags in the event that the ignition circuit is lost or
damaged during impact. The backup power supply
will deplete its stored energy approximately one
minute after the battery ground cable is disconnected.
Electrical System
The electrical system that supports the airbag SRS:
is powered from the battery through the ignition
circuit.
provides the electrical path from the restraints
control module (RCM) to the SRS components.
provides the electrical path from the RCM to the
airbag indicator.
provides the electrical path from the RCM to the
belt minder indicator.
provides the electrical path from the RCM to the
data link connector (DLC).
provides the electrical path from the RCM to the
generic electronic module (GEM) or instrument
cluster module.
