Air Bag Module /Heater Resistor Card

Post by Incognito » Thu Mar 12, 2020 6:57 pm

Can this be removed and the car still run ? Is this the module that we locate behind the glove box?
Is the heater resistor card actually in the heater mech on the dash ? As in the blue to red, cold to hot switching panel.

Two separate things Paul.
The heater card is up behind the glove box. As for the airbag one it’s either behind a rear panel or under the dash drivers side

Paul, the air bag module is on the drivers side, up above the cpu in the driver foot well (blue box)

The heater resistor card is in the passenger side foot well, remover the panel under the glove box then you will find the heater motor and then you will see the resistor card in the air flow piping,

If I feel any better tomorrow I will try and take some picture's gone down with the flu ( I hope that's all it is)

Malc, cheers for the photos, very helpful.
Dunc, where do I locate that ?

And, removal of the abs and airbag module, wont prevent the car from starting and being driven will it?

Just light up the dashboard, like a Christmas Tree :o

The ABS module, can be found behind the plastic panel on the rear passenger seat, by the speaker,
