If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.
I have an 97 Mercury Tracer that was invo;ved in a minor accident. The airbags deployed, and I was wondering if that would draw power from the battery afterwards. Thanks

Airbags are explosive devices. The explosives used vary by application, but most US cars with airbags use synergized lead azide. Once detonated, the fusible link breaks the circuit.
Thank you very much rockmike3
i believe air bag must be repacked & computer reset but that shoulden't drain power just put a code to the computer & make the air bag light come on .
a power drain not sure ??? you'll have to get a mechanic to scan it that should tell you what the issue is .
hope i helped

This will not drain the battery and I saw another replied to have the air bag repacked this is not done they cannto be repacked, it must be replaced on your vehicle you probally only need the air bag replaced on newer models you must change the airbag module and seatbelts on your vehicle probally not. by the way check ebay or google air bags you can buy a used bag on ebay for under 100 dollars as low as 15 or 20 thank you dave I hope this helped
