Airbag Light and both front windows
« on: 22 August 2008, 09:32 »
My mates just brought a MK4 GTI 2.0 got it for a good price from and aution just got a couple of niggly problems. The airbag light is on on the dash my mate had it on his S3 and it was the sensor under the seat is this a common problem. And the other thing is the front windows wont open and the interior light wont come on havent checked the fuses yet any ideas?

have you had it HPi'd could have been accident repaired and not reset the light? windows and light is most likely a fuse i would have thought have you tried the switch for the window on passenger side in case there is a fault with the drivers switch unit

Not sure mate aint my car. His spoken to AMD and they said its a common problem and they will sort it when they service it. Neither side works mate so I reckon its gotta be the fuse.  :cool:
