Hi,

 

My airbag light came on, the horn stopped working and the steering wheel buttons all stopped working. Sure enough, the ribbon in my squib was snapped.

 

I sent the squib off for repair and I've refitted it. The horn works, and the steering wheel buttons still work but I still have the air bag light and "Error: Airbag" when I turn it on.

 

I thought if I replaced like for like the airbag light would self clear - is this not the case?

 

if not, how can I clear it please? I've driven the car a bit and it's still there. Do I need a VCDS to clear it, as I don't have one.

 

Thanks for any help.

Yes. How often do I have to point out that airbag warning lights are latching?

OK. Thanks for the reply. I didn’t know this and I couldn’t find the answer from my searching the forums.
