Lateral Accelerometer: Description and Operation
Before VIN 343314
G SENSOR
The G sensor senses deceleration during braking to determine whether the vehicle is being driven on a high coefficient of friction road (snow-covered
road, etc.). It then sends a signal to the ABS control unit.
The reed switch turns on when it is affected by the magnetic field. During sudden deceleration (braking on a high coefficient of friction road), the
weight moves and the magnet in the weight moves away from the reed switch. The magnetic field then diminishes and the reed switch turns off.
