Zusammenfassung:An airbag deactivation system for the airbags mounted in a motor vehicle. The system provides a switch and circuitry to allow for selective deactivation of driver and/or passenger airbags in a motor vehicle via a conventional ignition key inserted into a key cylinder. The key cylinder includes a key stop for limiting insertion of the ignition key to a predetermined distance within the key cylinder that is substantially less than the length of the ignition key whereby the ignition key is unsupportable by the key cylinder alone.
