I need to replace the module or have it reset. Where is it located on the vehicle?

 

Need info on vehicle(year, model, etc). Can't help you without you helping us first.

 

02 ranger xl

 

middle console, on the floor, under the cupholders

 

yup...in front of the shifter(or where the shifter would be if automatic)

 

Ok I replaced the module with one from a salvage place but now the airbag light flashes code 46. I also replaced both air bags. Will this code stop the system from working?

 

Check the connector for the pretensioner under the drivers seat.Unplug it then plug it back together.

 

I think it has to be programmed with the vin on 01 and newer trucks.

 

Does this disable the system.

 

any idea where an airbag module is in an 05 2.3 L ranger.

 

The RCM is bolted to the transmission tunnel just below the center of the dash. There will be cupholders or some other trim covering the module to keep it out of view.

 

is there anyway to remove that trim with out breaking it. Right now i have been trying to take it off for 30 minutrs bit i cant find whats holding it in

 

If it's the bezel for a manual shifter, you may find screws hidden under the very edge of the rubber bellows. If it's an automatic with just cupholders, then there may be also be screws but they should be easier to find. Probably 3 or 4 screws either way. I haven't actually worked on that part of an 05, so take this info for what it's worth.

 

I have one last question for you. Does the seat beat detentioner (on the button part not the belt) effect the airbag module?
