Re: airbag warning light

Welcome to Briskoda.

You've posted this in the wrong section really but I'll try to help.

Did you remove the battery -ve lead before you removed the aribag?

It's probably just a case of having the fault code reset.

Re: airbag warning light

Did you switch on the ignition with it removed? That would cause it hopefully just a light reset then. I know that when we have to replace the spiral links (the contact slip ring) they come wired together, when you fit them you detach the wire. Apparently if you turn them and they are not fitted they are completely messed up.

Re: airbag warning light

If it is simply a case that the fault code needs resetting, this can be done in a couple of minutes by a Briskoda member with VAG-COM software and lead if one lives nearby. Whereabouts do you live?

Have a look in this thread and let me know if any of our VAG-COM owners lives near you.
