B1378 on Suzuki
Driver side airbag circuit resistance too high (Suzuki, Kia)

High resistance in an airbag firing circuit means the computer cannot confirm that airbag, and Honda and Toyota owner's manuals say an airbag light needs prompt attention because the airbags may not work as designed.
This page covers only what differs on Suzuki. For what B1378 means, the ranked causes and the test order, see the B1378 guide.
