Impact Sensor: Description and Operation
Impact Sensor - Description
DESCRIPTION
FRONT IMPACT SENSORS
Two front impact sensors (1) are used on this model, one each for the left and right sides of the vehicle. These sensors are mounted remotely from the
impact sensor that is internal to the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC). Each front sensor is secured with two screws (2) to the backs of the right and
left vertical members of the radiator support within the engine compartment.
The right and left front impact sensors are identical in construction and calibration. A cavity in the center of the molded black plastic impact sensor
housing contains the electronic circuitry of the sensor which includes an electronic communication chip and an electronic impact sensor. Potting material
fills the cavity to seal and protect the internal electronic circuitry and components.
The impact sensors cannot be repaired or adjusted and, if damaged or faulty, they must be replaced.
