H5 Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 i agree wiv wot your sayin but me airbags wont work.......... if i need them..........! how difficult is it to get to the tensioner to check the connector plugs..???? See if you can find a friendly techy to show you. IIRC, the air bag circuit involves a number of connectors to the different components, if there's a break in that, none of it works as it can't detect the signal. I'd not recommend taking the bulb out!! But I can't believe it's the pretensioner itself, more likely the connections to it. After all, a pre-tensioner just sits there doing nothing until impact, so I can't see what could go wrong with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to take pictures then to show what you need, bear in mind mine is the basic model with no leather or seat heaters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuey Posted December 31, 2006 Author Share Posted December 31, 2006 took the seats out no prob.......... took about 5 mins each.....i messed around with the connectors and investigated the tensioner ... i dont think that is the problem coz i thought the tensioner was supposed to have a gas cannister to be able to retract....... and there is no sign of one of those on the seat........ so im even more baffled now.......
