The dealer and/or scan tools will not be able to clear hard code due to hardware issues. After we reset your module, you will not need to take it to the dealer for any additional programming. When you receive the module back from us it will be as good as new. Almost all airbag modules can be reset unless they have experienced flood or fire damage. It is always best to send your original module to us for reset to avoid an additional trip to the dealer for coding. Most of the late model cars will have partial VIN stored in the airbag control module. Since 2006, MyAirbags has been providing excellent technical support and repair/reset services to body shops, collision shops, car dealers, and individuals, saving them time and money! #### **[Get Your Airbag Module Reset Today!](https://www.myairbags.com/product-category/repair-return/airbag-module-reset/)** ### Other Terminology Used for Airbag Control Module: - Airbag Module - SRS Airbag Control Module - Airbag ECU (Electronic Crash Unit) - Airbag Control Module (ACM) - Restraint Control Module (RCM) - Sensing Diagnostic Module (SDM) - SRS Control Module (SRSCM) - Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) - SAS Unit (Sophisticated Airbag Sensor) Module - Event data recorder (EDR) ### Vehicle Makes & Modules Serviced by MyAirbags At MyAirbags, we reset airbag modules for **all vehicles starting year 1995 and up** including: Audi, BMW, Buick, Cadillac, Chevy, Dodge, Ford, GMC, Honda, Infinity, Isuzu, Jeep, Jaguar, Lincoln, Mercury, Nissan, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Saab, Subaru, Volkswagen, Volvo and more. ### How to Get Started Send us your original airbag control module and we’ll have it reset and sent back within 24 hours of receiving it.  ### [**Start your order today!**](https://www.myairbags.com/product-category/repair-return/airbag-module-reset/)     - [FAQs](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/faqs?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Shipping](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/faqs?hsLang=en#shipping) - [How It Works](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/faqs?hsLang=en#how-it-works) - [Warranty and Returns](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/faqs?hsLang=en#warranty-and-returns) - [General](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/faqs?hsLang=en#general) - [UpFix](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/faqs?hsLang=en#upfix) - [DTC Codes](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/faqs?hsLang=en#dtc-codes) - [Airbag Module Reset](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/airbag-module-reset?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Airbag SRS DTC Codes](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/airbag-module-reset?hsLang=en#airbag-srs-dtc-codes) - [Airbag Module Removal Instructions](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/airbag-module-reset?hsLang=en#airbag-module-removal-instructions) - [Airbag Light On](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/airbag-module-reset?hsLang=en#airbag-light-on) - [Airbag Module Reset FAQ](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/airbag-module-reset?hsLang=en#airbag-module-reset-faq) - [Airbag Technical Questions](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/airbag-module-reset?hsLang=en#airbag-technical-questions) - [Troubleshooting](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/airbag-module-reset?hsLang=en#troubleshooting) - [Seat Belt Repair](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/seat-belt-repair?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Seat Belt FAQ's](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/seat-belt-repair?hsLang=en#seat-belt-faqs) - [Seat Belt Removal Instructions](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/seat-belt-repair?hsLang=en#seat-belt-removal-instructions) - [Shipping seat belts](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/seat-belt-repair?hsLang=en#shipping-seat-belts) - [Seat Belt Types (1-Stage vs 2-Stage)](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/seat-belt-repair?hsLang=en#seat-belt-types-1-stage-vs-2-stage) - [Seat Belt Technical Questions](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/seat-belt-repair?hsLang=en#seat-belt-technical-questions) - [Troubleshooting](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/seat-belt-repair?hsLang=en#troubleshooting) - [Other SRS Parts](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/other-srs-parts?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Steering Column Sensor Repair](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/other-srs-parts?hsLang=en#steering-column-sensor-repair) - [Head Reset - Crash Active Head Rest](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/other-srs-parts?hsLang=en#head-reset-crash-active-head-rest) - [Clockspring](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/other-srs-parts?hsLang=en#clockspring) - [Airbags](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/other-srs-parts?hsLang=en#airbags) - [Active Hood Actuator](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/other-srs-parts?hsLang=en#active-hood-actuator) - [Insurance Auction](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/insurance-auction?hsLang=en) - [Salvage Inspection](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/salvage-inspection?hsLang=en#main-content) - [GA (Georgia) Salvage Inspection](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/salvage-inspection?hsLang=en#ga-georgia-salvage-inspection) - [Guides & Tips](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/guides-tips?hsLang=en) - [Seat Belt Safety & Compliance](https://info.myairbags.com/kb/seat-belt-safety-compliance?hsLang=en) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://info.myairbags.com/hs-fs/hubfs/logo-1.jpg?width=190&height=50&name=logo-1.jpg "Chill listening crop-3")](http://upfix.com) MyAirbags FAQ's Copyright © 2026, MyAirbags
