Ford focus TDci 2002 problem airbag Sign In

Hi,
I have a focus TDCI 2002 and the other day I accidentally hit a rock pretty high, with the right front wheel.
Since I took a smear, I pinched the tire which exploded and plus I broke the right side seat airbags (passenger side) .
Since the airbag light comes on, I dismounted to see if you can pass it bai, since the car has its age and not worth replacing.
I saw that in the connector where it connects to the airbag, there are two contacts and inside there is a capacitor connected in series therewith, and (RC) when you plug the connector of the airbag is virtually inserted a resistor (which should be the that triggers the detonation).
My question is this, someone is aware of the value of this resistance and then you have to reset the ECU?

Thanks in advance for any help

What? Are you kidding me?

Nobody is going to tell you to jump out anything in your airbag system. That's a good way to get seriously dead.

My questions is why do you want do you want to fool the ECU? If an air bag goes off, you have to replace the air bag module and the ECU.





Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.
