Toyota Airbag Module Reset — $75 flat
Toyota calls it the Center Airbag Sensor Assembly (SRS unit). 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.
Toyota dealer: new SRS unit typically $350–$1,200 + programming + the wait for the part
Auto Module Lab: $75 flat — your original module, already matched to your Toyota
What we reset on a Toyota
Toyota calls the SRS brain the "center airbag sensor assembly." After a crash it stores deployment data that keeps the light on even with new airbags installed. We clear it at the chip level; the same assembly returns ready to install.
Where it lives: under the dash / center console, on the floor tunnel. Disconnect the battery, wait 10+ minutes, photograph the connectors, unbolt and ship just the module.

Toyota reset questions
Will clearing the crash data turn my Toyota airbag light off?
Yes — when the light is caused by stored crash data or hard faults in the SRS unit, 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.
Why not just buy a used SRS unit?
Used Toyota modules usually carry the donor car's coding — and on many platforms they're VIN-married, so the car rejects them or needs dealer programming. Your original module is already matched to your vehicle; clearing it keeps everything plug-and-play.
How much does the dealer charge instead?
A new module is typically $350–$1,200 in parts depending on the Toyota model, plus installation and programming labor. Our bench reset of your original is a flat $75, with 24–48 hour bench turnaround.
