Impact Sensor: Testing and Inspection
Front Impact Sensors
WARNING: If a dent, crack, deformation or rust is detected, replace with a new sensor.
1. Check the front impact sensor for dents, cracks, deformation or rust.
WARNING: If the resistance value shows the short-circuit or the open-circuit, be sure to replace the front impact sensor with a new one.
2. Check the short-circuit or the open-circuit between the front impact sensor terminals.
When short-circuit: 1ohm and less
When open-circuit: 1 Mohm and over
3. Check the continuity between the terminal and the bracket. When there is continuity, it shows insufficient insulation of the sensor. Replace the
sensor with a new one.
4. Deformation and rust on the headlight support panel.
