Overview

Key Features
- Direct-fit for Peugeot 406 with OEM codes 9633804080 and 821665.
- Mounts in the dashboard on the right (passenger) side.
- Designed to interface with the vehicle’s SRS system and connectors.
- Intended for professional installation or experienced DIYers familiar with airbag safety procedures.
Installation Notes
Before replacing an airbag, disconnect the vehicle battery (negative terminal) and wait at least 10 minutes to allow the SRS capacitors to discharge. Remove the glovebox or dashboard trim as required, unbolt the airbag module, and carefully unplug the SRS connector. After installation, restore power and use a diagnostic tool to clear or verify SRS fault codes. Follow manufacturer torque specifications for fasteners.
Common Faults & Lifespan
Airbags typically fail due to deployment in an accident, electrical connector corrosion, water ingress, or damage from dashboard repairs. They are passive safety devices and do not have a preset service interval; replacement is usually required after deployment or if the airbag warning light indicates a fault.
