Have you ever hit the brakes hard suddenly, and the seatbelts lock? During a collision, have your airbags deployed? This is a result of the Supplemental Restraint System working properly to ensure your safety and to minimize any potential damage to both you and your passenger(s). The SRS is a crucial part of your vehicle that should never be ignored and should always be in factory condition. The SRS can only do its job properly if it is taken care of properly.
The SRS consists of several components, one of which is the airbag module. When the SRS airbag module is deployed, an airbag code will come up, which may look different in various cars. For example, it may be the words “airbag off” lit up. An SRS airbag module reset may be necessary if the light is on. A reset will also be needed after an accident. This is because the SRS airbag system computer will have crash codes or crash data that are known as hard codes stored in it. This is something that no airbag module reset tool can reset. This is where you should turn to a professional like Safety Restore.
If you are looking to have the module replaced, you have the option of getting a new or used module. The issue here would be that either of these would need to be programmed to the cars VIN.
