In the new MTS-Airbag Tester, the test electronics are located in a separate housing that is galvanically isolated from the rest of the testing system. Preferably, the test electronics are installed in a hand-held adapter. The galvanic separation prevents electrical energy from reaching the airbag’s ignition elements, which could trigger the airbag. The data exchange takes place via a dedicated CAN bus.

Before each single measurement, a self-test of the MTS-Airbag Tester is carried out. This ensures that the electronics used for measurements are functioning correctly and are properly adjusted. Only if the self-test has been successful does the test of the connecting wires of the ignition pill start. The MTS-Airbag Tester checks that there are no short-circuits to ground or to the vehicle voltage. The test results show whether the airbag is correctly installed or whether there is a fault such as a short-circuit, cable break or an incorrectly connected connector.
