SAFING Sensor R & I: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Ford Pickup, 1995 Ford F-Super Duty, 1995 Ford Cab & Chassis, and 1995 Ford Bronco. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Vehicle sensor orientation is critical for proper system operation. If a vehicle equipped with air bag system is involved in a collision where fenders or grille area have been damaged, inspect sensor mounting brackets for deformation. If damaged, system should be deactivated to ensure air bag does not deploy. Damaged sensor(s) should be replaced, whether or not air bag has been deployed. In addition, ensure body structure in area of sensor mounting is restored to its original construction.
