SRS System Description - Impact Sensor
Front Impact Sensor/Side Impact Sensor
The front impact sensors are located on the right and left side of the front side frame, and detect the impact around the vehicle front. The G sensor within the front impact sensor detects the impact force from the front impact. If the impact exceeds the preset threshold value, it is converted into an electrical signal, which is transmitted to the SRS unit.
The side impact sensors (first and second) are located on the floor near the right and left side of the vehicle, and detect the impact around the front door and the rear door. The G sensor within the side impact sensor detects the impact force from the side impact. If the impact exceeds the preset threshold value, it is converted into an electrical signal, which is transmitted to the SRS unit.
