AlexZ Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Evening people....with the weather been fine yesterday me and my lady tooks a drive down the coast. On the way home the air bag warning light came on. This is the second time in the 11 months I've owned the vehicle. I took it to my local specialist today and he reset the warning light for me. He said "again theres no fault codes in the ecu but the light just re-set" thankfully he's a good friend and doesnt charge me. Has this happen to anyone else who has a good contact to take there vehicle to? Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 you can reset it yourself. There is a how to in the guides section. Its very easy just by using the key in the ignition. If the problem does re occur it may be a loose connection under the seat. Re seat the connectors. If still no joy it could be a trapped loom in the back of the seat which is getting damaged. Repair with a bit of soldering, should cost around £40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATTAK Z Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Happens all the time to some people ......... all to do with moving the seat to its extremities IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zugara Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Think there have been talks with the loom getting caught under the seat somewhere if the seat is pushed fully back.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roo Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Mine was caused by a the contents of a ladies handbag sliding around under the seat. Nothing dirty unfortunately... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With reference to the soldering I have seen this done a couple of time on French cars.. I'll wait and see what happens. The only think I dont understand is why it doesnt record the a fault code. If it was the seat buckles it should record the pretensioners faulty etc. Thanks for the info. Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexZ Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 Haha thanks guys, I havent moved the seats for a while before the light came on. It was strange lol... I know moving the seats causes problems on some cars. I'm for ever sorting next doors Clio out for her because she has a child seat in the back.
