9. FRONT AIRBAG SENSOR
The front airbag sensor is mounted inside each of the radiator
support. The front airbag sensor consists of an airbag sensor,
diagnosis circuit, etc. It sends signals to the airbag sensor as-
sembly to judge whether the SRS must be activated or not. The
front airbag sensor cannot be disassembled.
10. SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY
The side airbag sensor assembly is mounted in the LH and RH
center pillars. The side airbag sensor assembly consists of an
airbag sensor, diagnosis circuit, etc. It sends signals to the air-
bag sensor assembly to judge whether the SRS must be acti-
vated or not. The side airbag sensor assembly cannot be disas-
sembled.
11. CURTAIN SHIELD AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY
The curtain shield airbag sensor assembly is mounted in the LH
and RH quarter panels. The curtain shield airbag sensor as-
sembly consists of an airbag sensor, diagnosis circuit, etc. It
sends signals to the airbag sensor assembly to judge whether
the SRS must be activated or not. The curtain shield airbag sen-
sor assembly cannot be disassembled.
12. SEAT POSITION SENSOR ASSEMBLY
The seat position sensor assembly is mounted in the driver's
seat. The sensor unit consists of a magnet sensor, etc. It judges
the seat sliding position and sends the signal to the airbag sen-
sor assembly. The seat position sensor assembly cannot be
disassembled.
13. OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU
The occupant classification ECU is mounted in the passenger
seat. Based on the information sent from the occupant classifi-
cation ECU, the airbag sensor assembly determines whether
the SRS should be activated or not. The occupant classification
ECU cannot be disassembled.

(a) All connectors in the SRS, except the seat position airbag
sensor connector and occupant classification ECU con-
nectors, are colored yellow to distinguish them from other
connectors. These connectors have special functions,
and are specially designed for the SRS. All SRS connec-
tors use durable gold±plated terminals, and are placed in
the locations shown on the previous page to ensure high
reliability.
(1) Terminal Twin±Lock Mechanism
Each connector has a two±piece component con-
sisting of a housing and a spacer. This design al-
lows the terminal to be locked securely by two lock-
ing devices (the retainer and the lance) to prevent
terminals from coming out.
(2) Activation Prevention Mechanism
Each connector contains a short spring plate. When
the connector is disconnected, the short spring
plate automatically connects the positive (+) termi-
nal and negative (±) terminal of the squib.

(3) Half connection prevention mechanism:
If the connector is not completely connected, the
connector is disconnected due to the spring opera-
tion to the extent that no continuity exists.
(4) Connector lock mechanism (1):
Locking the connector lock button securely con-
nects the connector.

(5) Connector lock mechanism (2):
Both the primary lock with holder lances and the
secondary lock with retainer prevent the connectors
from becoming disconnected.
(6) Improper connection prevention lock mechanism:
When connecting the holder, the lever is pushed
into the end by rotating around the A axis to lock the
holder securely.
