Does anyone have all data

[Mike R]

I'm looking for the location of the right side impact sensor on a 2001 Saturn SL1

It's in the door

I looked, it's not in the door. The only wires that run to the door are for the speaker. Anyone else have an idea where it should be?

Maybe someone replaced the door and there is no sensor or wiring in it. Happens on re-builder's all the time. I would presume you are looking for it because you have a passenger side impact sensor code, correct?

It would probably help if you told us if the car is a 2 door coupe or 4 door sedan. The picture I posted is for a 2 door. I would assume now that you have a 4 door sedan and most likely the sensor will be in the B-pillar between the doors then. GMs website is not very clear on the 4 door. They describe it as being in the b-pillar, but give directions for taking the door panel off to remove it.

Does it have side air bags? Curtains or seat bags?

Shocking.
