OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
System DiagramINFOID:0000000005147779
Occupant Classification System (OCS)INFOID:0000000005147780
The occupant classification system (OCS) identifies different size occupants, out of position occupants, and
detects if child seat is present in the front passenger seat. The OCS receives inputs from the occupant classi-
fication sensor (located inside the passenger seat cushion assembly) and belt tension sensor (part of the pas-
senger front seat belt assembly and located at the belt anchor location). Depending on classification of the
passenger, the OCS sends a signal to the air bag diagnos is sensor unit. The air bag diagnosis sensor unit
uses this signal and the seat belt buckle switch RH signal to determine deployment or non deployment of the
passenger front air bag in the event of a collision. Depending on the signals received, the air bag diagnosis
sensor unit can disable the passenger front air bag completely.
NOTE:
In case of customer concern, CONSULT-III can be used to confirm the passenger air bag status (readiness).

HEATED STEERING WHEEL
System DiagramINFOID:0000000005147859
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000005147860
The heated steering wheel switch controls the heated steeri ng relay. When the switch is turned on, the relay is
energized and the heated steering system will operate. T he heated steering system will turn off when the
steering wheel temperature reaches approximately 86 ° F (30 ° C). Heated steering system operation can also
be canceled by pressing the heated steering wheel switch again.
NOTE:
If the surface temperature of the steering wheel is below 68 ° F (20 ° C), the system will heat the steering wheel
to approximately 86 ° F (30 ° C), and cycle off and on to maintain a temperature above 68 ° F (20 ° C). The indi-
cator light will remain on as long as the system is on. Push the switch again to turn the heated steering wheel
system off manually. The indicator light will go off.
