all airbags have the word "airbag" pressed into the plastic. the airbag controller is normally mounted on the floor close to where the shifter is. (inside the console). this may not be true in all types of cars tho
If your secondary restraint system (SRS) is disabled, you will need to reset your airbag module before the light can turn off, indicating the airbags are working properly. A scanner tool can be used to indicate the issue causing your airbag system to malfunction, and clear crash codes and hard data from the airbag computer system. After the airbag module is repaired and reinstalled, many vehicles will sense that there is no longer an issue, and the light will go off.
The code you have indicates that the internal fuse in the airbag control module has been blown; this happens automatically when a short to ground occurs in one of the airbag circuits in the vehicle. This is a safety feature designed to prevent injuries due to accidental deployment of the airbag due to an electrical fault; the module blows the fuse intentionally to disable the system. the fuse is not serviceable; a new airbag module must be installed after the short to ground has been located and repaired. The air bag diagnostic module is located at the center of the dash panel, below the integrated control panel
it is positioned in the very centre of the dash board, behind the radio/Air con unit, it is bolted to the floor, you will need to remove the dash board and possibly the air con unit to access. once the module and air bags have been replaced it shouldnt need anything else.
