Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Airbag

The deactivation of a car's airbags must have a significant justification, certainly not done lightly, given the importance they have for the safety of the occupants. In the case of maintenance work, to prevent them from deploying or any other reason, the best way to deactivate them is to disconnect the dedicated fuse. This fuse can be found by using the fuse diagram located inside the fuse box in the glove compartment on the passenger side, as shown in the video.
