Hi all, There is a white rectangular unit on the passenger side of the center console, attached to the plastic panel below the boomerang. A connector goes into it. What is that, please?

What do you mean by 'Boomerang?' We are not mind readers . . . A photo would help, as would the colours of the wires associated with it.

The airbag module is on the tunnel under the console but it's aluminium.

Yes!! This is it. When I put back my console , I think I forgot to wire it up. Looks like I’ll have to do it all over again!!

Sorry, I thought you meant it was attached to the outside of the console.

If it's not plugged in the car won't start. In fact when I forgot to plug one of them back in the whole car shut down when I turned the key.
