Get it coded out. Find someone with VAGCOM / VCDS

Nope

How can you test something that isn't there

unless it's driver's seat it's better to reconnect and get fault fixed (pretty sure it uses it for passenger detection - airbag deployment) and just get it coded out. I disabled it on my mk7 with VCDS, can be done on mk5 too.
