02-8 1. OVERVIEW Collision sensors, a kind of impact G (acceleration) sensor, detect the lateral and longitudinal collisions and determine whether or not to deploy air bags. The roles of each collision sensor are as follows: Front G sensors (inside the air bag unit)) Send signals to the front air bags (driver and passenger air bags) and the driver's and front passenger's seat belt pretensioners. When the front collision G sensor sends out only the air bag deployment signal, the signal deploys the two front air bags and activates their seat belt pretensioners. Once an air bag deploys, its repair parts vary according to the deployment situation and damage to the vehicle from collision. Needed repairs also slightly vary between the front air bags and the curtain air bags. The following are the differences: Replacement parts when the front air bags deploy: Air bag unit and its wiring (including connector), seat belt pretensioner and its wiring (including connector), whole front air bags, instrument panel (for vehicle with passenger air bag) For the air bag system in KORANDO SPORTS, the seat belt pretensioners on both sides as well as the driver/passenter air bags are deplyed when the front air bag is deployed like as they did. |
