Title: airbag light problem
Post by: spankyVR6 on 05 September 2006, 09:46
Last night I took my steering wheel off to straighten it up. When everything was back together the airbag light was still on, all the time. I started it up this morning and no airbag light at all, not even the three second check, nothing :angry:!!!! anybody know if disconnecting the battery will clear the fault or do I need to get it on VAG com or a fault reader/eraser? 

cheers for any help :wink:

I think the only way to erase the error code and find the fault is to use VAG com or a code reader. I got a code reader off ebay for about £30.  Its saved me lots of dosh and has paid for itself many times over already.

Cheers mate, I got a code reader/eraser ordered from America on Tuesday night! For £17.50 you can't really go wrong. I've been meaning to get one for ages, but as usual I have to have a kick up the backside to get something done about it! :grin:
