Dropped Airbag Sensors - Are They Still Good???

I am parting out a 98 s-10. Someone wanted the core support and someone else wanted to buy the sensors that were mounted on it. I used a dremel tool to remove the rivets and then dropped the sensors on a concrete floor. If this guy buys these sensors will they deploy the airbags if they're installed correctly? They were disconnected from power for a couple weeks before this happened. Please respond if you're positive about this situation. Thank you very much

If the sensor has been dropped...DO NOT use it.

Also never probe SIR circuits with a logic probe or self powered test lamp


If you don't know what you are doing ....don't F*** with it...
This is a safety item that can kill you if you incorrectly test the system.

Probing a 120v hair dryer with a 6,12,or 24v logic probe could get you killed.
