Are air bag controllers interchangeable?

[Speed]

I may need to replace my controller and I'm not sure if any VR6 one will work or do I need to get one with matching numbers to the one that I already have?

I would have thought that the numbers need to match?

Thanks in advance

no idea never had to play around with the airbag controller

what is the issue you are having?

Airbag light is on but vcds is unable to read the controller.

Am arranging a replacement with matching numbers. See if that makes a difference.
