2009 Ranger XLT 4x4 4.0L. Was involved in a minor accident which only damaged grille and part of the header panel but driver wheel airbag was somehow deployed.
I have taken the following steps to get the light off:
(1) Replaced seat belt pretensioner
(2) Replaced Restraint Control Module (RCM) inside vehicle under plastic cupholder/storage area
(3) Swapped the driver wheel airbag out of my 2011 Ranger 4x4 to the 2009 Ranger to see if airbag light would go off
(4) Cleaned all electrical connections
(5) Disconnected and reconnected battery several times
The shoulder belt still operates like it should. Does anyone know if this shoulder seat belt assembly also needs to be replaced even though it seems to be working properly? Are the wheel airbags from 2011 and 2009 somehow incompatible? Does the airbag light need to be reset using some type of diagnostic tool?
Any help would be appreciated.
