Deactivating the airbag on a 2016 Ford Transit is a simple but potentially dangerous operation. Only perform this if absolutely necessary, and immediately replace the system's protection after maintenance.

To deactivate the airbag, enter the vehicle and sit in the driver's seat, turn the steering wheel to the right, and insert the specific key into the hole behind the ignition for deactivation. Once the key is inserted, make a small upward movement to deactivate it. To reactivate the system, follow the same procedure.
