All that RAVE says is this:

The sensor uses the accelerometer to determine the severity of a side impact, and if the impact is great enough to warrant supplementary restraint operation, the sensor communicates the need for deployment to the central DCU via a single line serial link.

Judging by that description, I'd say that attempting readings across the connector pins is pretty pointless unfortunately.
