Many are mounted to the floor board under center counsel between front seats. If your airbag has been tripped you must replaces this module. They're hard to order new but I've had good success reusing from junk yard cars that haven't had bag deployed. Warning do not mess with airbag system until battery has been disconnected for at least 2 hours. I disconnect over night. These modules hold a charge with capacitors so it can activate in an accident even if battery cable is severed before bags are deployed. You must give capacitors time to discharge on their own or risk setting off the airbag by working with this system to soon. Of course this warning is only for working on systems that haven't already been set off or deployed. ie when reassembling system.

For 30 years now,when ever you get any
light on the dash, you have an Emission
System Malfunction ,that has to have the
codes retrieved,diagnosed and repaired
Have you not heard of OBD 2 or read
your owners manual,for any vehicle?
no, the pre tensioner goes bad(I say your probably have over 100,000 miles on this car), and it is a problem with dodge caravans, plymouth voyagers. You need to check the chrysler web site for recalls on caravans. this may have been on there,
the impacts sensors are located on the front near the fenders.
messing with an airbag system is dangerous.
leave it to a qualified technician.there are many other components other than the sensors.
The solution to this problem is usually found in the owners manual but if you do not have this, in the center of the dashboard there should be a switch that can be turned to the left with any kind of key if the light is not on beside of the switch this is an indacation that the air bag is active, however if the light is on (usually yellow) this indicates it is in the off position. When it comes to airbags on a vehicle it could mean the difference between life & death my suggestion is take to an dodge dealership and make sure it is properly working. you cannot put a price on anyones life. God bless & good luck!!!
even with exchanging the sensor the calibration could be off. without pulling codes from the airbag system it would be hard to guess for sure but id say you need to have the dealership do a recalibration on the seat
