Title: SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS: AIRBAG SYSTEM: DESCRIPTION (2008 Sequoia)

DTC

B1661/44

Roll Over Cut Off Indicator Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The RSCA (Roll Sensing of Curtain shield Airbags) OFF switch is a mechanism that operates both right and left side of the curtain shield airbag and the front seat outer belt when the center airbag sensor detects a roll-over.

The RSCA OFF indicator is installed in the combination meter.

If the RSCA OFF switch is operated, the indicator comes on to inform the driver that the roll-over detection system is not working.

The initial setting of the roll-over detection system is on. It automatically operates every time the ignition switch is turned ON.
