The offered module is used, which allows for an economical replacement of the component while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. It is a practical solution for post-accident repairs or restoring full functionality to the airbag system after a steering wheel replacement.

Before installation, it is recommended to verify compatibility with the specific vehicle equipment version and perform the installation in accordance with Volkswagen service procedures, while observing safety rules when working with SRS systems.

Safety, compatibility, and part selection

Selecting the correct steering wheel module is crucial for the proper operation of the driver's airbag. In practice, this means the component must be matched to:

• the specific vehicle model and generation,
• the version of the steering wheel used in the car,
• the factory airbag control system.

In case of doubt, it is worth comparing the module markings with the currently installed part or consulting a service center specializing in the Volkswagen brand to ensure full technical compatibility.
