yah, the airbag diagnostic module, it sits behind/above the heater controls, under the vents. take a peek, and yank it out. worthless.

little smaller than the radio. blue box. plastic.

it is tell you that the sensor in the front of the one of them might be bad . you need to hook it up to a scan tool to see if there is any codes . If you dont want to spend money just yank it out and take the bulb out of the dash that is the cheap way out.

there is a small chance that it might show a code, but these cars are notorious for those units dying after a while, and they flash the light for no reason.

about $800 to replace, and it doesn't mean a thing to the operation of the airbags if they are commanded to blow.
