Product Description
This Left Seat Airbag is designed specifically for the driver’s seat in Citroën Xantia and Peugeot 406 vehicles, providing an essential safety component for your car’s interior. It is crucial in protecting the driver during collisions by deploying and absorbing impact forces to reduce injury risk.
The airbag module is compatible with original equipment manufacturer (OEM) codes 9450631280 and 8216T8, commonly referenced during repairs or replacements. It fits directly into the seat structure, connected to the vehicle’s airbag control unit, enabling rapid and reliable deployment on impact detection.
Installation and Maintenance
Replacement of the left seat airbag should be performed by qualified technicians or experienced DIY enthusiasts familiar with vehicle safety systems. Disconnect the car battery and wait at least 10 minutes before starting to avoid accidental deployment. The airbag is located inside the driver’s seat frame; removing seat covers and accessing mounting bolts will be necessary. After installation, the system must be diagnosed using a compatible diagnostic tool to reset any fault codes and verify proper function.
Airbags can fail or become inactive due to electrical faults, impact damage, or after deployment in a collision. It’s important to inspect and replace airbag modules if any warning lights appear on the dashboard or after an accident to maintain vehicle safety standards.
