RECEIVER

The intrusion sensor receiver operates only when it is energized by the intrusion module. The receiver monitors ultrasonic signals generated in the vehicle cabin by the intrusion sensor transmitter through a receive transducer. The receiver listens to the ultrasonic signals as they bounce off of objects in the vehicle interior and provides input signals to the intrusion module. If an object is moving in the interior, a detection circuit in the intrusion module senses this movement through the modulation of the returning signals that occur due to the Doppler effect. The intrusion module monitors the current draw of the receiver circuits to determine the condition of the receiver and, if the draw is too high or too low, it will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for any fault that is detected.
