If air bag has blew on a corsa c what do you have to replace?
Obviously the bag itself, but what about the module, can this be reset by vauxhall or do u need a new one?
What about the wiring contact unit behind the steering wheel, does this need replacing?
Thanks guys
Ron.

Wiring will not need replacing.
General consesnsus is that when an airbag goes off you have to replace the module or the light wont go out, but i had a new shape punto the other day and replaced just the airbags and the lights went out.

So the wiring contact unit behind the steering wheel definately doesnt have to be replaced? I'm sure I read on here somewhere that it does.
