The air bag module is the vehicle'* “computer” that controls air bag deployment. Since 1990, recordable air bag modules have been installed in select GM vehicles. SDM, Sensing and Diagnostic Module, is the name given to air bag modules used in General Motors vehicles from 1994 to present.
In my car, it'* called a Diagnostic Energy Reserve Module or DERM.
