Air bag system components are shown in the illustration.
Backup Power Supply
This feature provides sufficient backup power to deploy the air bags in the event that the ignition circuit is damaged in a collision before the safing and
air bag sensors determine that a deployment is required. The backup power supply will deplete its stored energy approximately 1 minute after the battery
ground cable is disconnected. The Backup Power Supply is included in the air bag system diagnostic monitor.
