I concur, as 00087 isn't a valid code, but 87 is, which is passenger side airbag high resistance.

In which case OP needs to check under seat wiring, and also squib connectors (from memory, there is a bulletin about seat squib connectors)

Moved them fully forward and back. Op com cleared the code but it comes back immediately. Thinking about it... I had a thermos in the front footwell and I was going up a steep hill when the light came on. Possible that the flask rolled back and hit all those connectors under the seat. Possible cause?

Underseat connectors are one of the most common SRS failures. Always check there first........But first disconnect the battery, wait fifteen mins (just to be sure) for the caps to discharge and visually disconnect and check the wiring/connectors. Do NOT go poking around with a multimeter in the SRS wiring/components.

Once all plugged back in then reconnect battery and see what occurs.

Yup :y

Usually happens when the seats are moved for cleaning...

Raise the seat fully and look underneath,  you'll probably see a kink of evidence of chaffing. Obviously do the 15minute wait thing between moving the seat/disconnecting the battery and prodding/unplugging  ;)

Bummer! Disconnected connectors sprayed with contact spray and reconnected. Cleared fault code and started engine. Thought I'd fixed as the light went out.....only for it to come back on again! Tried this a couple of times with the same result. No sign of any chaffed wires. I guess high resitance at squib connectors means there is a break there somewhere?
Next move?

Okay, still having problems with this. I have had all the connectors apart under the seat and by the seat on the floor and sprayed with contact spray. Fault still present and beyond me I think. What is the general concensus of whether to give it to the local Indy to look at or give to the stealers who will be more aquainted to Omega wiring and have tech2.?

MOT is due 15 May. Wondering whether to put it in early to see if major money will be required before I spend too much on solving this issue.
