Kia Sportage: Airbag Module / Passenger Airbag (PAB) Module Description and operation
The passenger airbag (PAB) is installed inside the crash pad and protects the
front passenger in the event of a frontal crash. The SRSCM determines if and
when to deploy the PAB.

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