Commonly searched by part numbers 9688532880 and 8337CZ, this unit restores head and torso protection in side impacts and rollover events and helps bring the vehicle back to roadworthy condition following collision repairs.
Function
The roof (curtain) airbag deploys from the headliner area to protect occupants’ heads and upper bodies during side impacts or rollovers. It limits head contact with the vehicle interior and windows, reducing the risk of serious injury. The module includes the airbag cushion, internal inflator and connector interface compatible with the vehicle’s supplemental restraint system.

Installation Recommendations
Installation should be performed by a qualified technician or an experienced DIYer who follows safety procedures. Key points:
- Disconnect the battery and wait at least 10 minutes before starting work to reduce the risk of unintended deployment.
- Remove the appropriate headliner trim and any interior panels that obstruct access to the airbag module according to Peugeot service instructions.
- Handle the airbag by the housing, avoid touching the inflator outlet, and do not expose the module to heat or flames.
- Disconnect and inspect electrical connectors for corrosion or damage; replace wiring or connectors if compromised.
- Secure mounting points with the correct fasteners and torque values specified by the manufacturer; ensure correct routing of retention clips and trim.
- After installation, clear airbag fault codes and verify system readiness using appropriate diagnostic equipment.
How Replacement Is Performed
Typical replacement steps: disconnect battery; remove A-pillar and roof trim as needed; unbolt and carefully lower the old module; disconnect the airbag connector; fit the new module, reconnect the connector and reassemble trim. Final step: run a full airbag system check with professional diagnostic tools to confirm proper operation.
Why This Part Typically Fails
Replacement is most often required after deployment in a collision. Other common causes include water intrusion leading to connector or wiring damage, physical damage to mounting points or clips during previous repairs, and corrosion of contacts. Roof airbags do not have a fixed service interval and are replaced only when deployed or when damaged.
