Airbag Module Reset in Brighton
Professional airbag module reset and crash data removal services across Brighton and Sussex. We cover all vehicle makes and models to restore your safety systems.
What is an Airbag Module Reset?
When a vehicle is involved in a collision, the airbag module stores 'crash data' and locks the system. Even after replacing deployed airbags and seatbelts, the airbag light will remain on until the module is professionally reset and the crash data is cleared.
Common Issues We Solve:
- Airbag warning light stays on
- Module locked with 'crash data stored' fault
- Seatbelt pretensioner faults
- Occupancy sensor errors
- New airbag module requiring VIN coding
What We Do
Crash Data Removal
We clear hard crash data from the EEPROM/MCU chip inside the module, restoring it to factory state.
Module Coding
If the module cannot be reset and must be replaced, we code the new or used module to your vehicle's VIN.
Safety Verification
Full scan of the SRS system to ensure all airbags, tensioners, and sensors are correctly communicating.
Local Case Study
A recent airbag reset we completed in Sussex.
BMW 3 Series
Hove
Vehicle had been repaired after a minor front-end collision. Airbags were replaced, but the airbag warning light remained on due to stored crash data in the module.
We accessed the SRS module, removed the hard crash data, and recalibrated the system. We then performed a full diagnostic scan to confirm all components were active.
