Hi all,
I recently bought a 2004 Mondeo TDCI that shows fault code for nearside curtain airbag. On closer inspection I find the airbag has been triggered & deployed then cut back & hidden behind the trim, reasons unknown as there is no noticeable body damage.
Can I replace the airbag unit with another from a 2001 car? Do I have to have the airbag ECU re-set or will it recognise the new airbag unit & be happy?
Alternatively is there a way of turning off the side airbags & re-setting the warning light?
Thanks in advance
Mike
