Airbag deployment is generally not done on the basis of speed: they deploy mostly when there is a sudden stop in speed which has resulted from an impact.
Additional: Most aribag sensors are calibrated to activate when they sense an impact equivelant to striking something at a speed of about 30-35 MPH.
In the proper type of collision, the airbag could go off if you are sitting still.
No an airbag will not deploy if the battery is disconnected
there is no max speed for airbag deployment there is a minimum speed but that speed depends on make of car and airbag
In the proper type of collision, the airbag could go off if you are sitting still. It has to do with the "G" force of the collision, not the speed of travel.
There is no minimum vehicle speed. It goes off of acceleration or deceleration in the crash.
You have to be going at least 12 mph for the airbag to go off.
Get the airbag fixed. Seriously, having a faulty airbag is really dangerous. It could either go off at a very inopportune time (like when you're getting in or out of the car, starting the engine) or not go off at all in a wreck.
Airbag deployment can happen at any speed. It's not about the speed, but rather the impact that the car feels to deploy the bags.
fix airbag fault & serv light will go out
The 1997 Oldsmobile airbag module sensor can be found below the dashboard on the drivers side. The airbag module should be labeled as such.
no that's just an urban myth.
Zero mph. It is not about how fast you were going. The airbag goes off due to a sudden acceleration or deceleration. You can be sitting still and get hit by another vehicle with enough force to set the airbag off.
