airbag light after RCD510 install
« on: May 25, 2011, 01:30:05 pm »
afternoon,

after refitting my RCD510 to stop rattling my computer midline says airbag fault when turning on the engine...


any ideas?

 hopefully this can be sorted by VCDs...

Assuming it's all put back together correctly then yes, vcds will clear the fault code.
Without traction power is nothing!

Did you take the top piece off and disconnect the Passenger Airbag light and put the ignition on before reconnecting it?
