    2008 535i blown steering wheel airbag

    I am considering picking up a 2008 535i with a blown steering wheel airbag. What do I do to bring it back to drivable? Car will not turnover but lights on cluster turn on?

    I am a thinking airbag, ibs sensor, airbag module.

    Do I need to replace the crash sensor and do some coding? What software to erase code? INPA? Any input is appreciated.

    Scan the car first see what faults are present

    That's not a scan.
    If airbag was actually triggered rather than an accidentally discharged, check/replace the BST and reset ACM to allow LPFP to be powered.
