SRS module has been opened before a repair enquiry

Previous opening or memory work can change the assessment of a controller. Tell the receiving workshop before sending it, even if the earlier attempt produced no obvious result.

How to approach the assessment

Provide any documentation of the intervention and preserve the unit as received. Do not make further changes to imitate its earlier state. Suitability for any service depends on the unit, its condition and the required manufacturer repair route; replacement may remain necessary.

Useful details to send

  • Previous work and provider report.
  • Original and current symptoms.
  • Photographs already available from the repairer.

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.
