    Fluency 58 8 Consumer Information About the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) 18 The SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) airbag warning light on the 29 instrument panel displays the airbag symbol depicted in the illustration. The 39 system checks the airbag electrical system for malfunctions. The light 51 indicates that there is a potential malfunction with your airbag system, which 62 could include your side and curtain airbags used for rollover protection. 73 During a frontal collision, sensors will detect the vehicle's deceleration. If 86 the deceleration rate (measured in G-force) is high enough, the control unit 92 will inflate the front air bags. 103 The front airbags help protect the driver and front passenger by 114 responding to frontal impacts in which seat belts alone cannot provide 125 adequate restraint. When needed, the side airbags help provide protection in 140 the event of a side impact or rollover. Airbags are activated (able to inflate if 153 necessary) only when the ignition switch is in the ON position. Air bags 167 inflate in the event of certain frontal or side collisions to help protect the 172 occupants from serious physical injury. 184 There is no single speed at which the airbags will inflate. Generally, 198 airbags are designed to inflate based upon the severity of a collision and its 208 direction. These two factors determine whether the sensors produce an Adapted from the 2017 Huyndai Tuscon Owner’s Manual Fluency 58 212 electronic deployment / inflation signal. 223 Airbag deployment depends on a number of factors including vehicle speed, 236 angles of impact and the density and stiffness of the vehicles or objects 247 which your vehicle impacts during a collision.

  • SAFETY INFORMATION Your Safety—And the Safety of Others—Is Very Important, and Operating This Vehicle Safely Is an Important Responsibility
    SAFETY SAFETY INFORMATION Your safety—and the safety of others—is very important, and operating this vehicle safely is an important responsibility. While we strive to help you make informed decisions about safety, it is not practical or possible to warn you about all the hazards associated with operating or maintaining your vehicle. Therefore, you must use your own good judgment. n Important Safety Information This guide explains many of your vehicle’s safety features and how to use them. Please read this information carefully. Following the instructions below will also help to keep you and your passengers safe. n Important Safety Precautions • Always wear your seat belt. • Be aware of airbag hazards. • Don’t drink and drive. • Pay appropriate attention to the task of driving safely. • Do not leave children unattended in the vehicle. • Control your speed. • Keep your vehicle in safe condition. Engaging in cell phone conversation or other activities that keep you from paying close attention to the road, other vehicles, and pedestrians could lead to a crash. Remember, situations can change quickly, and only you can decide when it is safe to divert some attention away from driving. SAFETY Your vehicle is not recommended for child passengers. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada recommend that all children ages 12 and under be properly restrained in a back seat. Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, we strongly recommend that you do not carry any child who is not large enough and mature enought to ride in front. n Safety Messages When you see the following messages throughout this guide, pay close attention.

  • Airbag Theft and Fraud: Deflating a Growing Crime Trend
    AIRBAG THEFT AND FRAUD: DEFLATING A GROWING CRIME TREND The Facts Insurance industry statistics show that approximately 50,000 airbags are stolen each year, resulting in an annual loss of more than $50 million to vehicle owners and their insurers. Airbags have quickly become a primary accessory on the black market for stolen vehicle parts. A new airbag, which retails for approximately $1,000 from a car dealer, costs between $50 - $200 on the black market. Because of their portability, airbags can be easily removed and installed as “new” by unscrupulous collision repair shops. These dishonest operators will then charge the vehicle owner or their insurer the full price for the replacement, thus committing insurance fraud. Fraud and Theft Prevention Tips The National Insurance Crime Bureau suggests the following prevention tips to help avoid airbag fraud and theft. - Use a reputable automobile collision repair shop that employs ASE-certified mechanics. - Inspect the invoice to ensure the repair shop purchased the airbag from a manufacturer, dealer or recycler. - If possible, inspect the airbag prior to installation. If new, it should be packaged in a sealed container from the manufacturer. - The trim cover over the steering column should be the same color as the remaining trim interior. If not, it is an indication that the original airbag has been replaced. - When you turn on your vehicle's ignition, a red SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) indicator should light up and flash in the instrument panel display, indicating the airbag system is activated. No SRS light indicates a problem with the airbag system that could result in no airbag activation.

  • Instrument Cluster Test
    1/9/2020 Instrument Cluster Test (Instrument Cluster / Carrier) - ALLDATA Repair 2002 Dodge or Ram Truck RAM 1500 Truck 4WD V8-4.7L VIN N Vehicle > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Instrument Cluster / Carrier > Testing and Inspection > Component Tests and General Diagnostics INSTRUMENT CLUSTER TEST DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING If all of the instrument cluster gauges and/or indicator lamps are inoperative, refer to PRELIMINARY DIAGNOSIS . If an individual gauge or Programmable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus message-controlled indicator lamp is inoperative, refer to ACTUATOR TEST . If an individual hard wired indicator lamp is inoperative, refer to the diagnosis and testing information for that specific indicator. Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wiring information includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and connector repair procedures, details of wire harness routing and retention, connector pin-out information and location views for the various wire harness connectors, splices and grounds. CAUTION: Instrument clusters used in this model automatically configure themselves for compatibility with the features and optional equipment in the vehicle in which they are initially installed. The instrument cluster is programmed to do this by embedding the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and other information critical to proper cluster operation in electronic memory. This embedded information is learned through electronic messages received from other electronic modules in the vehicle over the Programmable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus, and through certain hard wired inputs received when the cluster is connected to the vehicle electrically. Once configured, the instrument cluster memory may be irreparably damaged and certain irreversible configuration errors may occur if the cluster is connected electrically to another vehicle; or, if an electronic module from another vehicle is connected that provides data to the instrument cluster (including odometer values) that conflicts with that which was previously learned and stored.
