Title: Airbag Warning Light Stays On
Post by: Bolts on 02 January 2017, 16:34

Hi all,
I readjusted my steering wheel recently by removing the airbag component and now my airbag light stays on. The things I've tried to turn it off are:

1) I've checked the connections under the passenger seat and behind the airbag on the steering wheel. They are both fine.
2) I've used an OBD tool but that doesn't recognise a fault.
3) I've disconnected the battery and left it for 10 minutes but that didn't work either.

Can anyone suggest anything else?

Also, is it an MOT fail if the airbag light is on?

Cheers,
Lance.

Mot failure. Did you use a handgeld tool. Try vag com to read it or something like bosch obd reader
