Title: SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS: AIRBAG SYSTEM: DESCRIPTION (2008 LX570)

DTC

B1661/44

Roll Over Cut Off Indicator Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The curtain shield airbag cutoff switch is a mechanism that operates both the right and left sides 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 curtain shield airbag cutoff switch is operated, the indicator comes on to inform the drive 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 engine switch is turned on (IG).
