I fried my first airbag, bough a second one that turned out to be faulty. If anyone has a spare known working airbag for 5th gen, without any codes, please let me know how much you want for it :thumbup:

Are you sure you actually know what is wrong with your car? You have made several posts relating to the rotary coupler (aka clock spring), either being the incorrect part or faulty or both. You then said it was all sorted.

As far as I'm aware, you cannot 'fry' an airbag unless it actually inflated.

Are you getting an SRS flash code that leads you to believe the airbag is at fault.

I posted up detailed information about the correct original OEM rotary coupler that you could have used to check yours is working correctly, but we never heard back if you had performed the tests/checks.

I replaced the clock spring with a second hand one which works, my horn and cruise control work perfectly fine now. Airbag doesn't work because I'm getting codes which are saying internal failure and in the service manual it says to replace the airbag when that happens.

What is the code you are getting?

I think it was a 7-3, but I've just realised that "SRS unit" is something different from the airbag :crazy:
