Impact Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Jaguar XE and 2017 Jaguar XE. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
G11312454

Impact sensors are installed in the front and both sides of the vehicle. The two front impact sensors are attached to the front end carrier, behind the inboard edge of each headlamp. The side impact sensors are attached to the base of each C/D pillar and to the inner panel of each rear quarter wheel housing, adjacent to the rear door latch strikers.

The impact sensors are accelerometers that allow the RCM to detect the sudden vehicle acceleration that occurs during an impact.
