Description
The Bosch Side Impact Sensor is a critical component for the airbag system in Citroën and Peugeot vehicles. This sensor plays an essential role in detecting side collisions and ensuring that airbags deploy correctly during an impact, thus increasing occupant safety.
Typically, the side impact sensor can be found failing due to wear and tear from frequent vehicle use or exposure to environmental conditions. It’s essential to replace this sensor promptly to maintain your vehicle’s safety features. Regular inspections are recommended to check for any signs of malfunction.
Installation of the sensor is usually done as part of the airbag system repairs. It requires disconnecting the vehicle’s battery and accessing the airbag module where the sensor is located. Make sure to follow proper safety procedures when performing this replacement.
