You hit a bat?!? That's pretty impressive :roflmao:

But seriously, you are going to have to reset the airbag module I'm not sure if a v2 has the capability as I have never dealt with it, but on salvaged cars it happens all the time.

May have been coincidental, or just a fluke voltage spike/drop. There's a procedure of relearning the SIR system to the body control module we have to do sometime with module replacement/reprogramming. Get the code so we stop guessing lol

I know this is from 13 but have a question.

Have an 08 lmm was in a front end collision. Airbags deployed. Hook up tech 2 and won't find ecm. Do I need to reprogram, relearn, or replace the airbag module to get the truck to start communicating with itself again ?

Adam - I just went through this last week on my mother's '08 Ford Edge. After a good trip on the new battery, I shut off and restarted and the light went out. Seems like yours should too, but that's a SWAG.

Well it's not running but we can hook up batteries and put key in and go to turn it on and nothing. Like nothing is communicating

Hasn't gone off in the 2.5. Years ;) and had 3 sets of batteries and almost 175,000miles since it came on

Would putting a new air bag module in solve this 08 not communicating with the ecm? Do I need new bags and sensors as well?
