The crash sensor, also known as an impact sensor, is a critical component of your vehicle's passive safety system. Its primary function is to detect sudden deceleration or impact forces that may indicate a collision. Upon detecting a significant impact, the crash sensor sends a signal to the airbag control module. This module then determines the severity of the impact and deploys the airbags and potentially other safety features like seatbelt pretensioners to protect occupants. This specific sensor is manufactured by VAG, ensuring it meets the high-quality standards and precise specifications required for your vehicle. Replacing a faulty or damaged crash sensor is essential for maintaining the integrity of your airbag system and ensuring it functions correctly in the event of an accident. Proper functioning of the crash sensor is vital for occupant safety. If you suspect an issue with your airbag system or have had a previous impact, it is recommended to have this component inspected and replaced if necessary by a qualified technician.
