My son had an accident in my Equinox and deployed the side airbags only. I have replaced the airbags, had the SDM reset and replaced a locked seat belt. My question is regarding the side impact sensors (13502577). Can these be reused? GM recommends replacing any sensor associated with an airbag deployment. Is there a procedure or test measurement one can run on these to determine if the sensors are good?

 

Doubtful. Probably just as much to replace everything like GM says.
