Driver Air Bag was released in a small crash. All others are intact. I got a driver airbag and RCM module . Is there a front impact sensor which I have to replace or can I just replace the driver airbag and RCM?
Dealer here does not know. Car is in Germany.

There will be a "non-serviceable" fuse in the RCM that likely blew, but the sensor should be fine. Replacing the airbag and RCM should be all you need. I don't have access to the service manual here at work to confirm that though. I'll try to remember to take a look this evening. I'm also not sure if there's any programming/configuration that will be required for the new RCM.

You are correct!

 

Thank you Rod
Do you have a decription how to replace the RCM and location?
I have only shop manuals and EVTM for the Explorer until 2011
