Product Description
MGF and MG TF SRS Airbag System
Important Notes:
Inspection and replacement of SRS equipment (airbag modules, steering wheel rotary coupler, seat belt pre-tensioners and ECUs) is dependent on type and severity of crash condition. The following guidelines are the minimum that should be exercised as a result of the deployment of specific SRS components.
If front airbags are deployed, the following parts must be replaced:
Driver’s airbag module
Passenger’s airbag module (if fitted)
Link harnesses connecting modules to SRS harness
Seat belt pre-tensioners
Driver’s seat belt retractor
Rotary coupler
SRS deployment control module
The following should be inspected for damage and replaced where necessary:
Passenger’s seat belt retractor and anchorage
Fascia moulding adjacent to passenger’s airbag module
Steering wheel
Seat frames and head restraints
Steering column
If either or both seat belt pre-tensioners are deployed in a rear impact, the following parts must be replaced:
Both seat belt pre-tensioners
The following should be inspected for damage and replaced where necessary:
Seat frames and head restraints
Seat belt retractors and anchorages
SRS deployment control module
In addition, because of deterioration of airbag propellants over a period of time, the manufacturers recommend replacement of airbag modules, seat belt pre-tensioners and the rotary coupler at 15 year intervals.
Please note that airbag modules cannot be shipped by mail order and may only be collected from the counter. Storage and fitment of modules is potentially seriously hazardous and must be carried out by trained personnel using correct equipment.
