what is the chances...
« on: 20 July 2013, 11:19 »
At the moment I've not got ant lights on my dashboard atall.
I want to take my seats out but don't want the airbag light to come on after I disconnect the plug under the seats.
What are the chances that if I disconnect them, clean the seats, and reconnect, will the airbag light come on. As I've done this with other cars and the connections are a pain in the arse

The light will only come on if ignition is turned on while seats are out otherwise you will be fine

You can disconnect the battery while you do it to make sure it doesn't come on.

I can't guarantee it, but when I changed my seats thats what I did. No airbag light came on.
