Nathan Posted July 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2022 Hi Paul, sorry to hear about the drama this morning. I hope it is a relatively easy fix? Regarding the airbags, my main concern isn’t front impact but side/curtain airbags when criss-crossing. The roll of the vehicle from one side to the other could trick the gyro into thinking it’s been a rollover event and therefore deploy the side airbags.

Paul Zietsman Posted July 3, 2022 Report Share Posted July 3, 2022 OK. Understood. So will fuse F26 disable airbags as well? I will also just replace my front bumber in good time. Nathan, can you please advise where you got your done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaurav Posted July 4, 2022 Report Share Posted July 4, 2022 @Paul Zietsman your airbag didnt pop as impact must be under 20 - 25 km (or something) speed threshold designed by Dodge and not because you were in 4X4. Frontal airbags are speed-sensitive first and then followed by the degree of impact. They only get triggered when the impact falls under the crush zone. What @Nathan mentioned is of utmost importance for US model cars to disable side airbags while off-roading. Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.

Nathan Posted July 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2022 @Paul Zietsman no F26 doesn’t disable it as far as I can tell. That only does TC, ABS etc. I believe that the fuse that does Airbags is also one of the ECM fuses, so it’s impossible to disable. That leads to a glass ceiling for how far we can push the Ram. That being said, owners of the TRX seem to do fine, so I haven’t been able to figure out what the difference is. I had my bumper done at Machinehead in Al Quoz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
