just took the car from the garage, and i have an airbag light which stays on, anyone had/solved this issue, had a quick look on Renn and there is loads of stuff to trawl through, just wondered if anyone had a quick fix? I kinda know what the answer will be though :cry:

I've been thinking of buying a Durametric from Design 911, not that that would help you, but is there anyone in the club near you who might have one? The thought of being able to look and reset fault codes without paying £50 per hour would surely pay for itself in a couple of years? No?

Due to the current economic climate, the light at the end of the tunnel has been switched off!

sadly lots of guys on Renn, have used a Durametric to diagnose this problem, and by and large the Durametric does not see the fault.The only sure fire way is with the Hammer :cry:

Yes, airbag light is red, plus it triggers the main fault light , also red, with exclamation light , which can be diminished
