Airbag Control Unit N2/2:

1 Web

There is a web (1) on the top face of these airbag or belt tensioner control units. When the control unit is installed in the vehicle, this web is accessible from outside (with the ashtray, radio or right-hand tunnel panelling removed) and indicates that the previous mercury switch has been replaced by a reed contact.

Control units with web need no longer be separately disposed of but may remain in the vehicle for scrapping, be disposed of as industrial waste or passed on to the usual scrap disposal companies.
