Description
Airbag Control Unit for Peugeot 308 T7. Fully Functional.
Product Overview
This airbag control unit (SRS module) is intended for Peugeot 308 T7 models and is identified by common OEM references. It monitors crash sensors, stores fault memory and triggers restraint systems in the event of a collision. Ideal for professional workshops and experienced DIYers who perform safety systems repair and replacement. Frequently searched by product code—use the reference numbers below when looking up compatibility.
Key Benefits
- Direct replacement for compatible Peugeot 308 T7 airbag systems.
- Restores proper SRS functionality when original unit is faulty or damaged.
- Compatible with standard Peugeot/Citroën wiring and connectors for straightforward installation.
- Includes commonly referenced part numbers to simplify online searches and inventory matching.
How It Works
The airbag control unit continuously monitors inputs from accelerometers, impact sensors and seat occupancy sensors. In the event of a collision it evaluates sensor data and deploys airbags and pre-tensioners as required. It also logs fault codes that are readable with a diagnostic tool and can disable airbags if a persistent fault is detected.
Replacement Procedure
Replacement should be performed by a trained technician or an experienced DIYer following safety precautions. Typical steps:
- Disconnect the negative battery terminal and wait before starting work to allow SRS capacitors to discharge (follow manufacturer guidance on wait time).
- Locate the unit (commonly mounted under the center console or behind the glovebox depending on vehicle specification) and remove surrounding trim panels.
- Unplug electrical connectors and remove mounting fasteners.
- Install the replacement unit, secure with the correct fasteners, reconnect connectors and reassemble trim.
- Clear SRS fault codes and run an SRS system self-test with a suitable diagnostic tool; some units may require vehicle-specific coding or initialization.

Installation Recommendations
Always follow factory procedures when working on SRS components. Disconnect the battery before beginning and observe anti-static handling to avoid damaging the unit. After fitting, use a compatible diagnostic tool to clear fault codes and verify system readiness. If the unit shows persistent faults after installation, inspect wiring harnesses, connectors and crash sensors for damage or corrosion before replacing the module again.
Why This Part Commonly Fails
Airbag control units typically fail as a result of direct impact from accidents, water ingress or corrosion of connectors, and electrical shorts caused by prior improper repair or damaged wiring. Units can also be rendered inoperative after airbag deployment. Regular exposure to moisture or mechanical damage during previous repairs are frequent causes of failure.
Important Notes For Fitment
- Match the product codes listed above when searching for compatibility and replacement parts.
- After replacement, verify full SRS functionality with diagnostic equipment and ensure all fault codes are cleared and no new errors are present.
Who Should Install
Recommended for professional automotive technicians or experienced DIYers familiar with airbag systems and vehicle electrical safety. Incorrect handling of SRS components can lead to non-deployment or accidental deployment—exercise caution.
