| 97-33956 | Air Bag On-Off Switches | Rule | This document amends a final rule which allows motor vehicle dealers and repair businesses to install retrofit manual on-off switches for air bags in motor vehicles. The rule requires the on-off switch to be key operated and requires a telltale that indicates the operating status of the air bag. NHTSA has determined that the language of the regulatory text could be mistakenly interpreted to require a key specifically matched to the on-off switch and that the rule was ambiguous as to how the readiness indicator should function when one or both air bags have been deactivated by means of the on-off switch. This rule revises the language of the regulatory text to clarify these issues. It also corrects a clerical error found in the original regulatory text. | 1997-12-30 | 1997 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1997/12/30/97-33956/air-bag-on-off-switches | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1997-12-30/pdf/97-33956.pdf | Transportation Department; National Highway Traffic Safety Administration | 492,345 | This document amends a final rule which allows motor vehicle dealers and repair businesses to install retrofit manual on-off switches for air bags in motor vehicles.
