One more question! I'm sorry! (airbag light)
« on: 11 October 2007, 23:26:39 »
 Ey up

Only problem I've got with the car is the airbag light... dealer reckoned it was cos the battery was flat. Do I assume it means the airbag will not work... and that I should take it to a dealer to get reset, rather than finding a local Tech2'd mechanic?

Regards

Once the light is on the system is disabled and it needs a Tech 2 to reset (cheapo Tech 2 can apparently do it too). It will cost you less to get one of our Tech 2 gurus to do it.

Agree^^^ but, providing you have a suitable lap top, it's cheaper to buy a 'cheapo Tech II' and reset it yourself, than it is to have the light reset at your robbing friendly dealer.

 Ah, being in Teesside, it's quite a way from... civilisation, really... ;) - who's the nearest?

My 'Cheapo TechII' is closer than that! If it's just a reset I can do it (Can't it Kris! :y )

If anyone has a cheapo nearer, shout up!  Cheapo, whilst far from perfect, should be able to reset most airbags (not that I'd be sat in drivers seat when reseting it!)

 Alright then, who's willing to either come to Teesside, or meet me halfway (I'll pay their petrol too, of course)?
