Impact Sensor: Description and Operation
Front Impact Sensors
The Driver/Passenger Airbag System is a supplemental safety device designed to help protect the driver/passenger from serious injury, caused by a
frontal impact of the vehicle.
The two front impact sensors provide verification of the direction and severity of the impact. The sensors are mounted to brackets on the left and
right side of the frame tips near the battery.
The impact sensors are threshold sensitive switches that complete an electrical circuit when an impact provides a sufficient acceleration to close
the switch. The sensors are CALIBRATED FOR THE SPECIFIC VEHICLE and react to the severity and direction of the impact.
