SRS Light on my '90 240

The Supplemental Restraint System (airbag) light just went on. My 240 has 180K on it. Fuses are all fine. My manual says air bag module & sensor unit should be replaced every 10 years by Volvo dealer. Yikes, I can see big bucks flying away! Anything I can get to by myself? Of course the manual says don't attempt service yourself . . . My Haynes manual only covers to '86 so has nothing to say about airbags.



Thanks much, Jay

read the code. The 240 is the same except the test point is behind aswitch blank (marked) on the center console.The control unit has no way of knowing that your airbag is 10 yearsold. In fact, Volvo has raised the 10 year replacement recommendationto 15 years and even 20 on some of them.
