Airbag warning light - but no fault found

[Pritchard]

so a couple of month ago i got in my car after leaving co-op, accelerated hard, and i saw my airbag light blink.

its done it ever since.

at the time i had a few tools under the drivers seat. i assumed i had pulled out a plug.

 

nope. checking all the connections and wires, everything seems fine.

 

finally got around to putting in my OBD!! reader, and scanned for faults - 0

not a single fault.

 

now i also have suspicions of a misfire when the car is cold - nay, it IS misfiring when cold. so there should be a few logs in there.

the software is upto date as far as i know.

 

anyway - the airbag light is a cert - should this show up in a obd scan? if not, how to a pinpoint which airbag is at fault?

 

thanks

Only electrical faults would flag up on the obd reader and if the EML light has came on, air bag light wont appear on obd.

Mine comes on from time to time too with no faults, I just do the reset using ignition and accelerator peddle

There is a reset procedure which you'll need to run through, the connections are really sensitive so the tools will likely have knocked it which caused it to trip.

 

Details of reset procedure here: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/58792-airbag-warning-light-onreset/

 

If after doing that the lights reappear try disconnecting and then reconnecting the connector and do the reset procedure again.
