Theory Of Operation
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
The Driver Remote Acceleration Sensor (Satellite) (Left Side Impact Sensor 1) is mounted near the base of the B-pillar. Refer to DESCRIPTION . Impact sensors perform their own self test using power supplied by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) then communicate this status back to the module. The repair of this fault centers on verifying the integrity of the sensor's internal circuitry and software validity.
