Purpose and function in the vehicle

The presented sensor is a component mounted within the front doors, suitable for use on both the driver and passenger sides. Its task is to work with the body safety system, particularly in the area of impact response in the door zone. Its placement within the door structure allows for precise transmission of information to the relevant control modules, which is crucial for maintaining the proper operation of protective systems.

Compatibility and fit for the Ford Kuga

Ford Kuga C482 Front Door Crash Sensor Left Right has been designed specifically for the C482 generation Kuga body, which translates into a perfect fit with factory mounting points. Its original Ford OE origin means that the geometry, electrical connectors, and method of integration with the vehicle's wiring are consistent with the solutions used on the production line. For the user, this means reduced risk of installation issues and minimization of the need for wiring modifications.

Installation characteristics

The sensor is designed to operate in the front part of the vehicle, within the doors on the left or right side. This configuration allows the same type of component to be used in two locations, which simplifies part selection for post-accident repairs or when replacing a damaged component. The design, intended for use with the factory Ford Kuga electrical harness, facilitates installation using standard service procedures, without the need for additional adapters.

Condition and application in repairs

The item comes from a group of used parts, making it an attractive solution for economical repairs, especially for vehicles a few years old. Replacing a door crash sensor with an original component from dismantling allows you to maintain the factory logic of safety systems while reducing costs compared to a new part. This is a practical option when rebuilding the door zone after a collision or when troubleshooting faults related to incorrect system response.
