Description
Left side seat airbag for the driver’s seat of the Citroën Xsara II (facelift). The module is finished in HZE – Tramontane interior colour and supplied with the wiring harness and connector for direct fitment to compatible Xsara II seats.
The seat side airbag protects the driver’s thorax and pelvis in the event of a lateral impact. The module is integrated into the seat backrest and deploys through a predefined seam in the upholstery. Correct operation depends on an intact upholstery seam, secure mechanical mounting to the seat frame and a fault-free electrical connection to the vehicle SRS control unit.
Typical symptoms that indicate a faulty side seat airbag include an illuminated airbag or SRS warning lamp and stored fault codes related to the driver side airbag circuit. Common causes are corroded or damaged connectors under the seat, broken wires in the movable parts of the seat, or activation of the airbag during a collision. Replacing the complete module with its wiring harness is a reliable repair in most cases and restores proper connector fit and electrical continuity.
Installation Recommendations
Always disconnect the vehicle battery and wait at least 10 minutes before starting work to allow the SRS system capacitors to discharge. Fit the airbag module only to a compatible left-side driver seat, secure it to the original factory mounting points and connect the original connectors. Do not perform direct resistance measurements across the airbag igniter. After installation, clear stored fault codes with a diagnostic tool and verify SRS system status. Inspect the upholstery seam and overall seat stability before returning the vehicle to service.
Compare part numbers and connector shapes with the original unit in the vehicle before ordering, especially if the vehicle has non-standard seat options or aftermarket adjustments. Compatibility is stated for the Citroën Xsara II (facelift generation).
