Stood on right side nerf bar and slowly applied weight to scale. At 20 lbs exactly the air bag light came on...kept pressing and at exactly 85 lbs the light went back off. So the theory is any child between 20 and 85 lbs will shut off right front bag. Any lard a** over 85 lbs like me will turn bag and seat belt chime back on. Gotta love technology
