Kia Optima: Airbag Module / Curtain Airbag (CAB) Module
Description and operation
Curtain airbags are installed inside the headliner (LH and RH) and protect the
driver and passenger from danger when a side crash occurs. The SRSCM determines
deployment of the curtain airbag by using the side impact sensor (SIS) signal.

Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the airbag
module even if you are using a specified tester. If the circuit
resistance is measured with a tester, accidental airbag deployment
will result in serious personal injury.
