In this video you come along as I have a look at 2008 Chevy 1500 that came in with the air bag light on and a code B0084-00 stored in it for the front impact sensor. Super common problem that can usually be figured out with just a visual inspection. -Enjoy!

As a mechanic myself for more than 40 years I can say guy's like you are few and far between and if you were in my town you would have a job at my shop in 2 seconds flat anytime you wanted it! I also had an opportunity to watch a video of a single mom becoming a nurse who was in need of a good car. Excellent job giving her the car. My heart goes out to you and your family and the youngsters. I thank GOD for putting you where are for this purpose. GOD BLESS YOU MY FRIEND. 👍👍👍 !

Backed my wife's 97 Chevy Astro van up our driveway due to snow forecast overnight. The following morning she decided it would be best to coast down the driveway instead of using the brakes. She bottomed out at the end of the driveway setting off both airbags. All parts were discontinued so I had to replace both airbags, impact sensor, and the module (code was latched) with wrecking yard parts. Fortunately all part numbers were identical and she was back on the road a couple of days later.

I had one of these on a '08 Sierra a couple years back. That truck had a whole list of issues, from bad u-joints, bad ball joints, hub bearings, and GMT-800 series axles in the 900 series truck (stretched to the MAX, lol - yanked the boots right off), plus an ABS unit full of green pus. The sensors on this one were so bad, it tore the label in half! I bought Dorman ones, since his bill was extreme with all the work I did. The Dorman ones looked IDENTICAL in every way to the OE ones I removed - made me think Dorman was manufacturing them for GM. That wouldn't shock me ... but, the light went out and all was well. They were half the money of OE.

I wanna say I got it for $60 off Amazon??? Older truck though, it was an 04. But it was a GM part, came in a GM box, looked just like the old one... worked! Fixed it for years, till I sold the truck.... My old one looked just like yours... Hahahah!

I've swapped them, cleared the code, then rechecked if the code changed. Easy way to find out which one is shot or you're chasing something else as the culprit. Turns out these Silverados also have paper thin wiring all under the seats. If you, gasp, move seats forward and backward often for whatever reason, it can, dare I say will, eventually make one of those wires break. So good luck if you have kids and have to move the seats often to get them into a car seat. Brush up on the soldering skill.
