HELP! How to get rid of my F4-11 SRS code
#1
![Thumbs up](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/icons/icon14.gif)
I have an 06 Acura TL. It was previously in an accident prior to me purchasing it. I scanned it and it had at least 5+ SRS codes F4-11 is included in those codes (airbag light is on). I replaced my seatbelts, passenger wright sensor, and also purchased a used airbag module of eBay. I swapped them out, and the airbag light is still on. Scanned it again and only the F4-11 "side curtain airbag has deployed **permanent code**" light is on. I just sent in my original module to get completely overhauled by a company who flashes them. My side curtain air bag is there, and I couldn't see anything wrong with it when I pulled my panels.
So my question is, is there anything that could be tripping that F4-11 code? Or did I just get a bad airbag module from a junkyard buy, that already had that code deployed? I just don't want to get my rebuilt srs module back to install it, and just have it trip the permanent F4-11 code again and screw up my new module.
Thank you, everyone!

The module you bought already had a code for the deployed airbag (must've come from a car with a deployed bag). Permanent codes are only set in an actual accident, if say you put a new module in an actually still had a blown side curtain bag it would give you a temporary code for bad resistance on that bag.
When you get your module back from being reflashed (myairbags I presume?), the only thing you may need to do is reprogram the ODS (occupant detection system) to the module. So there's a chance there may be a code for that, if not you're golden.

Thank you! You told me exactly what everyone else couldn't tell me! Now it's just a waiting game to get my module back! And yes, MyAirbags. Never used them, so hopefully it actually works out!
