G'day, Got an 07 C30 T5 - under the passenger seat (not electric) there is a small black plastic box, about 3" x 3" mounted on a bracket. Out of the way. Has a small wiring harness going into it.
I understand that the C30 has a lot in common with the S40 - so any of you S40 drivers have a clue what it might be? There is nothing wrong - just curious.
TIA
Some of the older Volvos located the airbag controller there, not sure about the C30 though.
Speaking of black boxes... apparently all new cars are equipped with a "black box" that spies on you. In case of an accident, it is supposed to provide details on your speed, braking, etc. . Anyone knows where that box is. Could be related to your ABS module???

20 Years then have them inspected
The original 10 year rating turned out to be conservative. I've heard of very early (1970s) airbags being tested and found to still function perfectly. I would be much more concerned with a control box failure than the airbag itself, and more worried about it going off unintended than not going off when it should.
