Our Repair Process
At Autobunkerz we diagnose the source of the water ingress and inspect the airbag module for corrosion and electronic damage.

• Airbag module testing

• Water damaged PCB repair

• Connector and pin repair

• Airbag module cloning

• Crash data reset (where applicable)

Important
Simply replacing the airbag module without fixing the blocked A/C drain can result in the same failure occurring again.
The source of the water leak should always be repaired before installing a repaired or replacement module.
