OK,I looked around to see if this was already here...

gots ta know

didn't we decide that ORM does NOT change anything with the air bag sensitivity?

I think it does, but that's a jeep thing,....

Sorry, had to do it.

But really, I haven't seen anything to convince me that the air bag sensitivity is not affected.

....

Well, no. I don't have anything the prove they are, but thanks for asking!

Does anybody know? I consider the topic's omission from the raptor cheat card to be an oversight.

It's not on the cheat card (Bastards). I'm going in to the dealer Wednesday. "A good dealer" that pays it's good tech's,so they're there for years. A high work ethic is demanded. (Hard to find one these day's) I'll put it to the shop and see if I get am answer. Albeit it's not an SVT dealer and the ORM isn't in anything else......

Well I learned that the,"5 MPH" the books say you need to be at to activate the ORM isn't correct. I have in hand a print out from SVT that say's to engage ORM you must be at 3MPH or less and off the accelerator. Which is what I need to do as I consider 3 MPH stopped. Situation normal.
Birdman is correct. ORM has no bearing on airbag status.

Oh nooo! I was wrong! It's going to take me some time to get over this.

OK, I'm over it. So what keeps the air bags from going off when the truck experiences a hard hit?

So I still offer up tow/haul mode for use on dirt roads.

I can only assume with some knowledge that there are sensors in the bumpers and doors that deploy the bags on impact. (Well they send the signal to fire em off) If you run something over it shouldn't deploy the bags.

At this point I have to assume the same. On my Wrangler, there is a keyed switch to turn off the air bags when off roading. I just assumed the rest of the world was the same.

My bad. ....! Jeep thing, ya know?
