SRS control module is faulty

SRS control module is nothing but a small
computer unit.

Its job is to regulate airbag deployment in the
event of a crash.
17
If it stops working due to some reason, your
restraint system will malfunction.
18
Bad seat belt pretensioner
19
Another common reason behind restraint system
malfunction in a car is a faulty seat belt
pre-tensioner.
20
What's a seat belt pre-tensioner, you asked?
21
Well, this is what locks the seat belt in place
to secure the driver in his seat in the event of
a crash.
22
Bad passenger occupancy sensor
23
The job of this sensor is to determine if a
passenger is in the seat or not.
24
It helps the restraint system to determine
whether the airbag should be deployed in the
event of an accident.
25
So, obviously... the failure of such a critical
sensor could render your BMW restraint system
useless.
26
Flaws in the wiring harness
27
The wiring harness, if faulty, can also cause the
restraint system in your BMW to malfunction.
28
Sum Up

Restraint system is a vital safety feature.

Thats why if you want to be safe while driving
your BMW, ensure the upkeep of its restraint
system.
