Abstract: A contact sensor and method of construction thereof are provided. The contact sensor has a sensor body extending along an axis between a first end and an opposite second end. The sensor body has an internal cavity extending from the first end to the second. A first conductor extends through the internal cavity between the first end and the second end. A second conductor extends through the internal cavity, in spaced relation from the first conductor, between the first end and the second end. A wire harness is fixed in electrical communication with the first conductor and the second conductor adjacent at least one of the first end and the second end of the sensor body. The first conductor and the second conductor do not extend axially outwardly from the internal cavity beyond the first end and the second end of the sensor body.
