Written by John Wells | Nov 2, 2018 4:00:00 AM

If your Volkswagen vehicle was involved in an accident/collision, or you are a dealer or a body shop that is rebuilding a vehicle that you have purchased at an auction such as Copart or IAAI (Insurance Auto Auction), then you will love MyAirbags. We are here to save you hundreds of dollars resetting your VW airbag control module ecu and rebuilding your VW seat belts.

VW SRS Airbag DTC Codes

Even after a minor accident the airbag may not deploy but the seat belts will lock and airbag module will need to be reset because of crash data and crash codes that are stored in the airbag module. MyAirbags will reset your airbag control module back to its original manufacturer state clear of all codes, both soft and hard codes. Typically, these codes will indicate that there is crash data stored, airbags deployed, communication failure, a full memory, or other airbag, seat belt related issues. Regardless of which issue these codes are indicating, they require to be sent to MyAirbags for reset because of the crash history and hard codes that are stored in the airbag control module. These codes and crash data will not clear with a diagnostic scanner. Below you will find common airbag codes that can be stored in your airbag control module after your vehicle was in an accident.

VW Airbag Module Reset (plug-n-play)

The best part of having your Volkswagen's original airbag module reset by MyAirbags is that when you get your airbag control module back and it goes back into the same vehicle that it came out of then it will be plug-n-play. No additional programming of the VIN is required. This is an alternative to purchasing a new or used airbag module that will need to be taken to the VW dealership to have the new or used airbag control module programmed to your vehicle. Send your airbag control module to MyAirbags and save time, money and not having to deal with a dealership for repair service!

VW Seat Belt Repair

During an accident, seat belt retractors and tensioners are deployed and will lock up by their gas charges, similarly to how airbags are deployed in a collision. After an accident or collision, the seat belts will be locked or will no longer work properly. Your seat belts will lock and will not work pull out or retract back in. MyAirbags can rebuild your seat belt and will save you hundreds of dollars on each seat belt. Seat belts usually cost between $200-$350 per seat belt, MyAirbags can rebuild the at a fraction of that cost. MyAirbags is certified and uses all OEM parts to rebuild seat belts. So, how do you know that your seat belts are malfunctioning or damaged after a collision? A few common symptoms include:

Locked seat belts
Seat belts not retracting
Slow seat belts
Seat belts that are tight
Compressed seat belt buckles
Airbag code: pretensioner resistance too low
Airbag code: pretensioner resistance too high
Seat belts making rattling noise
