Airbag and Safety Belt Pretensioner Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) - Overview

Overview

The RCM continually receives and monitors inputs from the OCSM and various other hard-wired switches and sensors. If the RCM detects a sudden vehicle deceleration and/or lateral deceleration based on the information received from the various sensors, and determines that deployment is necessary, the RCM applies voltage and current to deploy the appropriate SRS components.
