Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch: Description and Operation
PURPOSE
In event of collision, switch de-energizes main relay. This safety feature shuts off power to the ECM, injectors and fuel pump relay.
OPERATION
The switch is a gravity activated safety device sensitive to impact forces. When subject to sufficient G-force, as in a collision, the switch opens,
interrupting power to fuel injection system and activating the central locking system to open all door locks and close both trunk and fuel filler locks.
If the inertia switch is tripped, a plunger on top of the switch pops up. To reset, depress plunger.
