A couple of things...........
« on: 20 July 2011, 08:01:24 »

Firstly, the front Fog light fuse is blowing - wires touching?

Any ideas where I need to look - routes of wiring, places where the circuit can short?

Secondly, I'm getting a code 77 readout for an airbag light on the dash - Drivers side airbag squib .
Do I need to get the side airbag out and follow/check the wiring through to the seat base?

All Help very much appreciated!!

there is a connector on the passenger side behind the fog light
it conects the fog lights wiring to the main wiring
disconect this to establish if the fault is still there
and if not then you only have that short wire to causing the issue
