Checking auxiliary signals
Checking wiring for crash signal
The engine control unit receives the crash signal ("Crash cut-off was activated") from the airbag control unit.
The airbag control unit sends the crash signal to the engine control unit (during an accident or if a final control diagnosis is carried out relating to the airbag system), the engine control unit switches off the fuel pump, which stops the engine. It can however be restarted (e.g. to move vehicle out of danger area)
