Description
The Steering Wheel Airbag for Peugeot 406 is a crucial safety component designed to provide effective driver protection in case of collision. This airbag is compatible with PSA Citroën and Peugeot vehicles, specifically tailored for the Peugeot 406 model. It fits models associated with product codes 96303944ZL and 4112EQ, commonly used across various 406 variants.
This airbag plays a vital role in reducing the risk of injury during accidents by deploying rapidly in frontal impacts, absorbing impact forces and preventing contact with the steering wheel. Over time, airbags may need replacement due to sensor faults, inflation mechanism wear, or after deployment following a collision.
Replacing the steering wheel airbag requires careful handling due to the airbag’s sensitive inflator and electrical connections. It is recommended that professional tools and procedures be used to disconnect the vehicle’s battery before replacement to avoid accidental deployment. Compatible with standard Peugeot 406 steering wheels, installation involves removing the steering wheel cover, detaching the old airbag module, and fitting the new unit while reconnecting all electrical connectors securely.
