Welcome to AF
When working with air bags you need to thread with care.
Sir/air bags are just like a loaded shotgun with saftey off.
THEY CAN SAVE YOUR LIFE OR TAKE IT IN A SPLIT SECOND.
AIR BAG REPAIR IS BEST LEFT TO THE PROFESSIONAL.
Was the old air bag deployed?
If so system may be triggerd and may blow a new air bag when you hook it up.
If so the module may have to be replaced first if tripped.
Some can not be reset.
To replace passanger side air bag the lower dash has to come down and air bag unbolts and bolts in.
But never hook it up untill you get the SIR/air bag system checked out with a Air bag capable scanner to be sure it is safe to hook it up.
Read up on it in factory repair manual or All Data

System should first be checked with a SIR/air bag cqapable scanner.

exactly as he said above!!!
i've seen one blow the second it was plugged in. the sensor in the front bumper was bad, and blew the bag immediately. not fun.

If light is on Sir/air bags system will not work.
Get it put on a Air bag capable scanner to see what the problem is.
Parts places do not do air bag scanning or testing.
You will need to find a good repair shop that does.
Let us know how it goes.
