Suprakeith Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 My mum has got light on warning light on dash so had it diaganosed and they said was front airbag sensor. So had look today and think have found the correct sensor,just want to get peoples advice if am right or wrong. Its a 53 plate 1.6 petrol focus. And help would be great as want to get it sorted for her asap. Here is couple pictures of suspect sensor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mace Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 It looks like a resistor type thing that the heater system runs off. Where did you find that? Could be but I never seen one like that. Usually is just a plastic box.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprakeith Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 I found the sensor in the radiator fan shroud. Havent a clue where to look for crash sensor as took all lights and grill off and couldnt find any wires going to front of car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be bolted to the offside front chassis rail iirc. These are common for the module failing aswell, which gives a code relating to the front sensor.
