Front Airbag Sensor
The front airbag sensors are electrical type deceleration sensors. As a result of the deceleration of the vehicle during a frontal collision, distortion is created in the internal element in the sensor and is converted into an electrical signal.

Door Side Airbag Sensor, Side Airbag Sensor Assembly, No. 2 Side Airbag Sensor Assembly* and Rear Airbag Sensor
The door side airbag sensor LH and door side airbag sensor RH consists of a pressure sensor, communication circuit, etc. Each sensor detects an impact to the respective side of the vehicle and sends a pressure value signal caused by deformation of the front door to the airbag ECU assembly.
A deceleration sensor is built into each airbag sensor assembly, No. 2 Side Airbag Sensor Assembly* and rear airbag sensor. As a result of the deceleration of the vehicle during a side or rear side collision, distortion is created in the internal element in the sensor and is converted into an electrical signal.
