Kia Sportage: Front Impact Sensor (FIS)
Description and Operation
Description
The front impact sensor (FIS) is installed in the Front End Module (FEM).
They are remote sensors that detect
acceleration due to a collision at its mounting location. The primary purpose of
the Front Impact Sensor (FIS) is to
provide an indication of a collision. The Front Impact Sensor (FIS) sends
acceleration data to the SRSCM.
