3 Faults Found:
01280 - Airbag: Passenger Side: Disabled
35-00 - -
01217 - Side Airbag Igniter: Driver Side (N199)
32-10 - Resistance too High - Intermittent
00532 - Supply Voltage B+
07-10 - Signal to Low - Intermittent
ignoring the pass airbag one.. ross-tech wiki says
01217 - Side Airbag Igniter; Front Driver Side (N199): Upper Limit Exceeded

01217 - Side Airbag Igniter; Front Driver Side (N199): Short to ground
Possible Symptoms
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) active
Possible Causes
Wiring/Connectors from/to Side Airbag Igniter, Front Driver Side (N199) faulty

Check Measuring Value Blocks (MVB)
and
00532 - Supply Voltage B+: Signal too Low
Possible Causes
Wiring/Connectors from/to Control Module faulty
Power Supply (Battery/Generator) faulty
Possible Solutions
Check/Repair Wiring/Connectors from/to Control Module
Check Power Supply (Battery/Generator)
Special Notes
When found in an individual control module, it's most likely a local source (e.g. wiring/connectors).
When found in multiple control modules at the same time, it's most likely a common source (e.g. ground spot, battery, generator).
Intermittent codes are often stored during low outside temperature when the battery capacity goes down and may be ignored.
Common with 16946/P0562/001378 - System Voltage: Too Low stored in other control modules
to get to the side igniter, is that a strip-down seat jobby? it doesnt look easy to get to..
also the supply voltage b+ prob, is the control module behind the steering wheel? would it be worth replacing...would that clear the side igniter prob aswell...
can you buy side igniters? sorry for the random jittery questions, its just im outside in the cold and figures are cold, typing is gettin difficult lol
