engine stops afer crash

Post by adi99 »

Hello I got my Volvo xc90 2016 at the auction with driver and roof airbags blown as driver door was in a impact , I was trying to start the car to move on the trailer ,engine starts but keeps shutting off after couple seconds
This is not a hybrid model it’s t6 awd inscription
I know the there is a pyro fuse at the battery but if that would be blown I don’t think engine would start all together or have any power to dash(not sure)
Could somebody let me know I would really appreciate it if it this is normal or car should be able to idle at a minimum after airbags blown
I really need to move the car to be able to fix it, was thinking about disconnecting the srs module for the time ,would that help?
I’m asking all this as car is located remotely right now and I’m trying to gather all possible solution’s as I need to plan the trip where the car is located right now
Thank you for your help

Start the car, shift to neutral, and winch on to trailer. Sort and fix later.
