When to replace your airbag module.<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If you do not know what an airbag module is or what it does, you most likely do not know when you need to replace it. For your own safety\u2019s sake, it is important to learn, so let me fill you in.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The SRS airbag module in your vehicle is a tiny unit generally located beneath the driver or front passenger seat. Even though the unit is relatively small, it serves a significant role in preserving occupants\u2019 safety on the road. This is because the entire airbag system, including the airbags themselves, the impact sensors, and seat belt pre-tensioners\u2014depends on the SRS airbag module. Without a properly functioning module or one altogether, the airbags would not be able to deploy during an accident. As you can imagine, that can result in a greater possibility of injury or even death.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Wondering when to replace your airbag module? – This is what a SRS module looks like.<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When a vehicle has been involved in an accident, the SRS airbag module picks up the information during the crash such as the vehicle and engine speed, seat belt use, throttle position, seat belt pre-tensioner deployments, impact speed change, airbag deployments, and brake light switch position. All this information is stored in the form of crash data and hard codes. When the unit has all that kept data in it, it is an indication that it needs to be replaced. This would be the proper time to purchase a brand new SRS airbag module or reset the present unit back to factory settings. Otherwise, the airbags will not be able to serve their purpose in the future.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You probably won\u2019t want to replace the unit entirely at the dealer knowing that you have an equally safe\u2014and more affordable\u2014alternative. You can send the unit into a company that specializes in resetting SRS airbag modules: Safety Restore.<\/a><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
