Mitsubishi Airbag Module Reset — $75 flat
Mitsubishi calls it the SRS-ECU (SRS-ECU). After a deployment it locks its crash data — the light stays on and no scan tool clears it. We reset your original module on the bench, 24–48 hours, plug-and-play on return.
Mitsubishi dealer: new SRS-ECU typically $350–$1,200 + programming + the wait for the part
Auto Module Lab: $75 flat — your original module, already matched to your Mitsubishi
What we reset on a Mitsubishi
Mitsubishi's SRS-ECU stores deployment data new airbags won't clear. Bench reset of the original module is the economical path — especially on models where new units are slow to source.
Where it lives: under the center console on the floor tunnel. Disconnect the battery, wait 10+ minutes, photograph the connectors, unbolt and ship just the module.

Mitsubishi reset questions
Where is the SRS-ECU on my Mitsubishi?
Typically under the center console on the floor tunnel. Disconnect the battery and wait 10+ minutes before unplugging it, photograph the connectors, and ship just the module — see the packing instructions in your confirmation email.
Do you need my VIN?
It helps — add it at checkout and we verify the module matches your vehicle before the bench work. It's optional, but it catches mixed-up modules from body shops handling several cars.
Will clearing the crash data turn my Mitsubishi airbag light off?
Yes — when the light is caused by stored crash data or hard faults in the SRS-ECU, clearing it removes the cause. You still need the rest of the system healthy: deployed airbags, blown seat-belt tensioners, or damaged impact sensors must be replaced or the light will return with live codes.
Is a reset safe? Will the airbags still work?
A reset returns the module to its pre-crash state — the same state it shipped in before the deployment. It does not alter the deployment logic. After reinstalling, the system self-tests on every key cycle exactly as designed. If we find internal damage that a reset can't make right, we tell you and refund instead of shipping back a module we wouldn't put in our own car.
