If your Honda Civic airbag is deployed during an accident, not only do you need to replace the driver’s airbag, but you will also need to clear the airbag light using an SRS OBD2 Scanner.

Sometimes, you may even need to remove the airbag module and send it to a third party to perform SRS Module Reset Service (eBay link), which is often required if hard codes stored in the airbag module can’t be cleared with an airbag scanner.

To clear the airbag light, a Honda Airbag Scanner is needed. IN MOST CASES, THE generic OBD-II scanner cannot read airbag codes and clear them. Airbag fault codes can not be cleared if crash data is stored in the module.
