The airbag control module is generally located in front of or underneath the gear shift lever. Areas marked with AIRBAG in the vehicle indicate airbag locations. Use a diagnostic tool to scan the airbag system for faults and repair according to the fault codes. If no faults are detected, the system can simply clear any existing error codes. Airbag: An airbag is a vehicle occupant restraint system that uses a rapidly inflating and deflating cushion during collisions. It consists of an airbag cushion (flexible fabric bag), inflation module, and impact sensors. The purpose of airbags is to provide soft cushioning and restraint for occupants during collision events, reducing injuries between passengers and vehicle interior components. Vehicle Airbag Locations: Airbags provide energy-absorbing surfaces between vehicle occupants and the steering wheel, dashboard, body pillars, headliner, and windshield. Modern vehicles may contain multiple airbag module configurations including: driver, passenger, curtain, seat-mounted side-impact, knee bolster, inflatable seatbelt, front right-side, left-side sensors, and pedestrian airbag modules.
