Title: cpl of probs?
Post by: John Ando on 23 May 2007, 16:18:51

Hey!

Ive just got my first omega 98 's' 2.5 V6 CDX Auto and Ive got an airbag light permanantly on on the dash any ideas?
Also it runs great and idles really quiet, no smoke or nuffin like that but it was a bit of a pig to start first thing this mornin. I'm wonderin if I gave it too much pedal before turning the key or is this a fault?????

Thanks

John

Air bag light can only be reset with diagnostic equipment.

You shouldn't need to touch the accelerator pedal when you start it.

Im used to giving my 2.7 diesel TX1 'hackney' cab a squirt with the pedal before I turn it over. I'll have to try n break the habit.......... ::)

Thanks

Airbag light needs a tech2 to read why its on and reset.

Does your engine management light come on with ignition?

Yep, should start on the key with no accelerator at all....

Good news! It started this morning no probs (without the pedal) so that's put that one to bed.
The engine management light does come on with the ignition lights and goes out once vehicle has started.

That sounds perfectly normal...
