Help, Airbag warning light
« on: 25 July 2010, 20:29:21 »
Airbag warning light recently decided to stay on, have checked with "My Naff Code Reader", shows faults 44 and 81, memory blocks identify "Passenger side, side airbag sensor - Interupted/Not OK"
Anybody know what I should be looking at ?
Have checked wiring under seat and all the way to the side airbag, nothing appears to be wrong.
Is there a separate sensor I should be checking ?

Thanks

In door.

TIS suggests replacement, though we have known it to be door connector...


Anyone using "My Naff Code Reader" to mess with airbags is a braver man than me ;D ;D ;D

Thanks, does that mean there's a sensor in the door ?

1) Yup

2) Pretty buggy piece of software.  I'm told on good authority that an airbag in the chops does smart somewhat ;D

I was very afraid when I did this the first time..

There are plenty on this site who will testify I do do that if I'm not using a genuine Tech2.....  :-[

I've only ever done airbag lights from outside with the cable trailing out of the window ;)

It's quite ironic.. One of the main safety features on a car is also potentionally deadly if you're unlucky.. There have been several accidents due to unintentional airbag deployments  :(
