Side Impact Sensors
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
- If the side impact sensor is not installed securely and correctly, the side-air bag may not operate normally.
- If a dent, crack, deformation or rust is detected, replace with a new sensor.
- Check the side impact sensor and bracket for dents, cracks or deformation. The side impact sensors are located inside the center pillars (LH/RH).
- Check the connector for damage, and terminal for deformation.
- Check that there is no bending or corrosion in the center pillars (LH/RH).NOTE: The illustration at left shows the left side impact sensor (LH). The position of the side impact sensor (RH) is symmetrical to this.
