B0010 HONDA Meaning

The driver side airbag is located in the center of the steering wheel. The front passenger side airbag is located in the front passenger side dashboard. Airbag modules adopt dual stage inflators for the driver side and/or front passenger side airbag depending on specifications. Dual stage inflators improve airbag effectiveness by properly adjusting when both inflators are activated (simultaneously or sequentially) based on collision speed or collision impact.
