Dorset Recovery Group and Motor Services
Your vehicle’s airbag system (Supplemental Restraint System, or SRS) is a vital safety component. If the airbag warning light is illuminated on your dashboard, it signals that there is a fault somewhere in the system — be that sensors, wiring, control module (ECU), or the airbag modules themselves. This means that in the event of a collision, airbags might not deploy, or may deploy incorrectly, putting the driver or passengers at risk.
At Dorset Recovery Group, we take such faults seriously. Our team ensures thorough diagnostics, repair or replacement of faulty components, restoring your system to full working order so that you can drive with peace of mind.
1. Full diagnostic inspection
We use modern diagnostic equipment and tools (including SRS fault code readers and sensors testing gear) to locate the root cause of the the warning light (or other indication). This can include checking crash sensors, seat occupancy sensors, wiring harnesses, airbag modules, the control unit, and connectors.
2. Fault evaluation & transparent quoting
Once we identify the issue, we explain clearly what has failed — whether it’s a sensor, wiring, module, or airbag inflator — and provide a fixed quote for repair or replacement. No hidden surprises.
3. Repair or replacement
Depending on the fault we can:
4. Testing & verification
After repairs / replacement, we reset the SRS codes, test the system, and ensure that the warning light is extinguished and all airbag system components are fully functional.
5. Safety & compliance
We ensure all work is done in compliance with manufacturer specifications and safety standards. Any replaced airbag or inflator parts are handled carefully to meet safety regulations.
If you notice any of the following, it might indicate an airbag fault:
Do I need to bring proof of accident?
If airbags have deployed, we will inspect and may need to replace modules / inflators. We handle the process end-to-end, including sourcing the correct replacement parts.
How long does the job take?
Typical diagnostic + basic sensor / wiring repair may take a few hours. Replacement of modules / inflators could take longer depending on parts availability.
Is it safe after repair?
Yes, once all components are replaced or repaired and the system is tested, the airbag system should be restored to full safety capability.
