Got airbag codes from the tech 2 last week and some were related to the front impact sensor. 04 esky ESV rolled into the riverside yard and I figured I’d hit the yard and grab its impact sensors. They were gone. Dang it. But lucked out and another 04 shorty esky had sensors intact. Grabbed em. 53 bucks with warranties a piece wasn’t too bad. Not sure if they work though. They’re in and getting them in and out wasn’t bad. Grabbed a ratcheting wrench that made that job easier. The codes directly related to those sensors haven’t shown up but it’s showing these two codes a displaying service air bag across the cluster screen. Photos of the esky sensors and the codes thrown after those got swapped. Weird…..

Deployment commanded? Sounds like the Tech2 thinks the airbags went off.....?

I know you're pretty far east of the affected fire area, but dang. Scary out there on the west side of LA
Yeah scary for sure. Thankfully this one isn’t going to affect my mountains but we had our turn all of September when both the big bear AND wrightwood mountains were on fire with the line and bridge fires. Over 100,000 acres burned between those too fires alone. That really sucked.

Was the battery disconnected for the change or since the sensors were changed? Can you reset those codes with the Tech 2 or are they permanent codes?

I unplugged the battery before swapping the front impact sensors. The codes related to those front impact sensors have not returned however the two codes related to deployment have not gone away with the battery being unplugged and the tech 2 is not clearing those. Nor is it turning off the airbag light or clearing the service airbag warning on the DIC.

Did you hit something or drive over something that was in the road? Could've hit one of the sensors.
