(1)
Terminal Twin–Lock Mechanism
Each connector has a two–piece component con-
sisting of a housing and a spacer. This design en-
ables the terminal to be locked securely by two lock-
ing devices (the retainer and the lance) to prevent
terminals from coming out.
(2)
Airbag Activation Prevention Mechanism
Each connector contains a short spring plate. When
the connector is disconnected, the short spring
plate automatically connects positive (+) terminal
and negative (–) terminal of the squib.
HINT:
The type of connector shown above is used for connectors ”2”,
”3” and ”4” in the diagram on the preceding page.

Electrical Connection Check Mechanism
This mechanism electrically checks that connectors
are connected correctly and completely. The electri-
cal connection check mechanism is designed so
that the disconnection detection pin connects with
the diagnosis terminals when the connector hous-
ing lock is locked.
(4)
Connector Twin–Lock Mechanism
With this mechanism connectors (male and female
connectors) are locked by 2 locking devices to in-
crease the connection reliability. If the primary lock
is incomplete, ribs interfere and prevent the sec-
ondary lock.

(b)
When the vehicle is involved in a frontal collision in the
hatched area (Fig. 1) and the shock is larger than the pre-
determined level, the SRS is activated automatically. A
safing sensor is designed to go on at a smaller decelera-
tion rate than the airbag sensor. As illustrated in Fig. 2,
ignition is caused when current flows to the squib, which
happens when a safing sensor and the airbag sensor go
on simultaneously. When a deceleration force acts on the
sensors, 2 squibs in the driver airbag and front passenger
airbag ignite and generate gas. The gas discharging into
the driver airbag and front passenger airbag rapidly in-
creases the pressure inside the bags, breaking open the
steering wheel pad and instrument panel door.
Bag inflation then ends, and the bags deflate as the gas
is discharged through discharge holes at the bag’s rear or
side.
