Passenger Airbag

[Big-Kokujin]

How do you turn that mofo on?

[El_Jorge]

sit in the seat

[Big-Kokujin]

Oh, does it go by weight? because i had some stuff on it and it was off...the seatbelt was on, so i know it "sensed" something was there.

[El_Jorge]

I think it has a weight sensor too. But Im not 100% sure. I know there is a bunch of stuff wired under that seat.

[zereaux]

it might need to be a specific amount of weight to turn on...

[xBvegan]

it's triggered by the amount of weight. so if someone puts a small child in the seat, they wont be killed by the airbag exploding in their face.

Has to have like 75 lbs on the sensor to turn the airbag on :pilot:

The sensor is on the left-front section. You can find it if you feel around. My backpack trips is all the time.

[Big-Kokujin]

Sweet, i did notice when my wife sat on it it came on...

thats a great feature, instead of the key thing...

[xBvegan]

curiousity was killing me so i went out and got my owner's manual. it doesn't give an actual weight, it just says "a person of adult size". damnit, i still don't know. :wallb:

I think it's a lot less than that. I've had a heavy backpack on the seat before and the "no seatbelt on the passenger? light up thingy came on. So I'm guessing around at least 15-25lbs. I've pushed down on it with my hand just to show people too, and I'm a weakling when it comes to upper body strength.

[Big-Kokujin]

the 75 is for the airbag...under that will show the seatbelt...even just resting on it...

Brook,
all that hanging and swinging from stripper poles and we're supposed to believe you don't have a lot of upper body strength?!?!

:flex:

Ahh, I see, that makes a little more sense, I thought the two were tied in together, like better put your seatbelt on or else you're gonna get a whole lot more airbag in the face.
