Replacing an airbag module will cost you up to $600 for parts alone. A wet airbag module will illuminate the SRS light.

When it gets wet, the module starts to corrode or short out. The airbag module is under the driver or passenger seat. It is a labor-intensive task and I recommend letting a mechanic do it for you. To replace the clock spring, you need to take out the control module, the steering wheel, and other components. Replacing the clock spring should cost you $30 to $35.

Over time, the clock spring can get worn out which can lead to the SRS light illuminating. The airbag clock spring is a component placed inside the steering wheel to protect the electrical wires on the airbag system when turning the vehicle. If you let the mechanic do the replacement for you, add around $60 to $70 labor costs to the total. Replacing faulty airbag sensors can cost you up to $311, depending on the vehicle you own.

Plug back the wires and screw the bolts.

Use your tools to unplug the wires and remove bolts.

Once done, keep the engine off and disconnect the battery.

Locate the sensors using your vehicle’s manual.

To replace faulty sensors, here is what you should do: In modern vehicles, there may be many sensors. Usually, they are in the front and back bumper. However, you would need to know where the sensors are. Replacing faulty sensors is a relatively easy task. Car owners should check these sensors for any fault and do a system reset. Faulty sensors are one of the leading causes for the SRS light to come on. With many sensors in your Honda car, there are chances that any one of them could require replacement. In the SRS system, airbags get deployed when the airbag sensor sends data to the control unit upon impact.

To shut it off, you would need to do a hard reset. In older vehicles, you might still have the SRS light illuminated. The backup battery should start charging. To ensure that your airbag battery is up and running, charge your main battery or replace them. If the main battery has drained, you will have a depleted airbag backup battery too. Honda vehicles have a small backup battery for the airbag system to deploy that gets its charge from the car’s main battery.
