Video tutorial

In this video, see how to remove the passenger side airbag from a Fiat Panda 169: the first step is to disconnect the battery to prevent the airbag from deploying unexpectedly. To remove the airbag, you need to take out the glove compartment, which is secured by five screws, two external, two internal, and one central that is very visible inside.

Then disconnect the electrical connector on the left, exposing the three Torx screws that secure the airbag module: once the screws are removed, disconnect the electrical connector on the left side. You can find many used ones online at a good price, making it easy to replace.

Refit it in reverse order, and then replace the glove compartment.
