An air bag is actually a sack or bad that is inflated by a very small explosive charge.
The car makers currently use a small electric shock to set the explosion off.
The most simple system to control the electricity for this is a small special switch usually mounted on or in the front bumper support. It measures the direction and speed of impact and triggers the air bag before the electrical system or battery is damaged in the crash.
Newer systems actually are computer controlled and decide what air bags and how hard to set them off in the split second between impact and the car being damaged so much the electrical system stops working.
This is an educated guess... A squib is a firework (aka pyrotechnic) and most airbag designs are inflated by pyrotechnic means. Therefore I believe the squib is the charge that triggers airbag inflation.
The airbag module on an 04 Toyota Sienna is located at the front of the engine compartment. It monitors for impacts which cross a threshold which triggers the airbags.
The computer has sensors to decide if the impact warrants deploying air bags, if so an electrical current triggers the gas generator that inflates the bag.
a small electric impact sensor located low on the front end of the car//////wich in turn triggers an explosive gas that inflates the bag
Speed doesn't trigger an airbag, otherwise they'd be exploding all over the hgihways. Impact and sudden decceleration triggers them.
Well, when a car crashes there is a sensor in the front of the car wich if hit hard enough sends a pulse to another sensor which triggers a tank of nitrogen gas witch inflates the airbag. all this hapens in a split second.
when your crash you hit a sensor and it sends a shock to the airbag whick ignights a fuse that triggers a explosion and forces hot air into the air bag which is why when an air bag is deployed its hot and causes burns/ scratches look like road rash it also doesn't help the airbag has to be strong and the material feels like 1000 grit sand paper
Airbag was created in 1973.

The airbag system has a malfunction and will not deploy if needed as long as the airbag symbol stays on.
