On earlier model 9000 (pre -94), there's 2 sensors, placed in the front part of the enginecompartment. On the later models, the sensing is all integrated in the SRS-unit, which is located at floorlevel in front of the cabin, just inside the torpedoplate. This might be the reason that your bags deployed - your car got a large bump, just beneath the SRS-unit. The unit might have percieved this as a higher speed (30-40 mph) crash....
On the new 9-5, the SRS unit is placed further back in the cabin...
Cheers!
