How Does the SRS System Work on the Mercedes E-Class?

Model: Mercedes Classe E W210 - Years 1995-2002
Part: Onboard computer

The acronym SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) refers to a passive safety system designed to protect the driver and passengers in emergency situations. The purpose of the SRS sensors is to measure the vehicle's parameters in motion and track the position of people in the cabin. All this information is sent to the control module, which manages the actuators. In emergency situations, for example, when a vehicle collides with an obstacle at a speed of 31 mi/h or more, the inertial sensors are activated. Consequently, the control module activates the propellant charges of the airbags, and finally, the airbags deploy.
