What to replace after airbag blew?
Only my curtain airbag blew, I have already removed it and ordered a new one.
I am now wondering do I need to replace the airbag module? Or can I just reset it?
And if I do need to replace/reset it, where is it located on an is350 2007?
Any advice appreciated.
Oh and if you're just going to say take it to a specialist... save it. Please.

The airbag module needs to be reset or replaced. Resetting it requires connecting to a computer with a special cable. There are services that will do it for you if you send it to them. You will also need to check the sensor that caused the airbag to deploy. Google airbag sensor locations.

Update: Turns out you do need to replace the airbag ECU and the airbags that blew.
The ECU is located under the center console armrest. To reach it you have to disassemble the entire center console.
