A restraint warning after steering wheel work requires the original and replacement equipment to be identified. Appearance alone is not evidence that airbags and related components are compatible.
How to approach the assessment
Tell the workshop who performed the work and whether any wiring was altered. Do not use resistors, simulators or warning-light coding as a repair. The correct route depends on the fitted components and manufacturer instructions for the exact vehicle.
Useful details to send
- Original and replacement part records.
- Work performed.
- Full SRS diagnostic report.
Arrange the right assessment
This guide does not establish that a vehicle is safe to use. Restraint repairs need qualified assessment and the correct manufacturer instructions. A module service does not replace required component repairs or vehicle-level verification.
Ask AXION about your repair or read our SRS module assessment information. Workshop visits are by appointment in Didcot. Confirm suitability before posting any removed module.
