11.1.6.2.2 SENSORS
! CAUTION
Do not attempt to check or replace any impact sen-
sor unless the vehicle battery is disconnected. This
renders the sensing system "powered OFF". Wait for
at least 10 minutes after the battery is disconnected
and then start the relevant work/repair.
A. FRONT IMPACT SENSOR
(FIS)
These sensors are positioned well forward in the
crush zone that will react almost instantly to the sud-
den deceleration that results from the front impact.
They send signal to the SRS ECU and help in firing
the restraints in the minimum possible time. These
sensors are equipped with
“Safe Mode”
function to
ensure that the SRS fires only when there is a physi-
cal crash event of significant severity.
