Re: Cabriolet airbag question

[Matthew Yip <mgyip@yahoo.com>]

I'm uncertain of the location of the air bag sensor but it has to hit
very specific set of parameters before it deploys the bag.  

When working on the air bag system (or in this case digging around in
the front end) - disconnect the battery which should de-power the air
bag.
