Abstract
The invention relates to a security system for a motor vehicle opening leaf comprising means for detecting, remotely, the presence of a user's hand near the handle of the opening leaf, the detection means comprising at least one sensor (32, 34) capable of emitting or of receiving an electromagnetic signal, PA1 borne by an internal module (36) which bears the sensor (32, 34) in such a way that the sensor (32, 34) is opposite an opening made in the bodywork panel (12). The security system further comprises a cover. The opening in the bodywork panel (12) is blanked off by a cover (40) made of a material that is transparent to the electromagnetic signal, the cover (40) being secured against an external face of the bodywork panel.
