Buick Airbag Module Reset Service (SRS / SDM Control Module)
Module Repair Lab provides a professional Buick airbag module reset service
designed to restore proper Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) operation after an accident.
Buick vehicles store crash and deployment data inside the airbag control module—commonly
referred to as the SRS module or SDM (Sensing and Diagnostic Module).
Once crash data is recorded, the airbag warning light remains illuminated and cannot be cleared
using a scan tool. Our reset service permanently removes this stored data and returns your
original module to factory operating condition.
Fast Turnaround & Factory-Level Restoration
Upon receiving your Buick airbag control module, our technicians perform a complete crash data
reset at the electronic memory level. Most modules are processed within
one working day and shipped back promptly.
The reset restores proper system communication and allows for a true plug-and-play installation.
In some cases, additional calibration may be required if the vehicle detects other SRS component
faults after reinstallation.
Why Buick Airbag Lights Stay On
Airbag lights commonly illuminate after collisions—even low-speed impacts. When this occurs,
the Buick SDM records crash data that locks the system and may also trigger seat belt
pretensioners. Once locked, the module cannot be reused without a reset or replacement.
Dealerships often recommend replacing the airbag module entirely. Resetting your original module
avoids VIN mismatch issues, eliminates dealer programming costs, and preserves the factory
configuration already registered to your vehicle.

Important Technical Notes
Buick airbag control modules may be referred to as the SRS module, SDM, or airbag ECU
(Electronic Crash Unit). Many late-model vehicles store partial VIN data inside the
module, which is why resetting the original unit is strongly recommended.
If the airbag light remains illuminated after reinstallation, another SRS component
such as airbags, seat belts, wiring, clock spring, or impact sensors may be reporting
a soft fault that must be addressed separately.
