It has a fault because it came back faulty on the MOT sheet, hence the car failed.
The light doesnt come on at all, it only comes on if I disable the passenger airbags. So I honestly dont know whats going on.. the only thing I can think of is that they notice there is absolutely no wiring under the seats, but the hole is in the floor for it.
Strange one!

i know it sounds obvious but if the car has had fake mot and you have other issues with light alignment damaged gaitors it could simply be its had a crash airbags deployed /removed pre tension belts
as far as airbag light the yellow one should come on and go out when the key starts the car anything else is a fault and fail on an mot these days
as for side airbags are you sure the seats are original

There should be 2 x airbag lights on a multiplexed 206.
1 light for driver airbag + seatbelt pretenionsers, this light is also for side & curtain airbags if fitted.
A 2nd light just for the passenger dash airbag.
Multiplexed 206 also uses led for the cluster warning lights, I get the feeling someone been bodging in the past.

You can easily check all the dash lights using PP2000. One of the tests turn them all on at once.

In the original post he said it came on if disabled, and also on the start up after re-enabling it, but only on the first start. The bulb must be working?
I doubt a 1.1 would have side airbags. Someone needs to put the VIN in servicebox and check.
EDIT. Re-read that, he said it used to work but not anymore, could the bulb just be knackered?

In the sig it says 2003 model, so as MrBSI says, it will have SMDs rather than bulbs. I suppose it could be a case of the SMD giving up, it could be a first as I've not heard of that fault before.

Whatever is going on, I am going to a Peugeot dealer tomorrow for advice and diagnostics, and then to an independent who specialises in Peugeots. So I will probably know the situation tomorrow.

This sounds likely to be tbh. I was already thinking this might of happened!

I have only ever, since I've owned it, seen the passenger airbag light on, and this is because I disabled it and it came on. After enabling it again, the first time I started the engine it came back on and went off as it should afaik. Ever since that it doesnt appear again. I've never seen any other airbag light on the dash :/
I cant really give you guys any more information about it because thats all I know. Will update here tomorrow afternoon when I've got all the details of what's going on! Thanks for all your suggestions

Hi MrBSI,
It beeps ones as I start it when it is calculating the milage, and then beeps again when it has finished calculating. Thats it though.
Again, I have never seen the Airbag light on in the car. I still think wiring has been removed!

It shouldnt beep at all.
I reckon you have single line multifunction display.
Sounds like someone's been bodging.

Hmm, I didnt know that, I thought it was supposed to beep!
I'm a odds with this bloody problem. I'm hoping it's simple, but it doesnt seem it. I don't know whether it is worth going to the Peugeot dealer first, or the independent mechanic who specialises in Pugs. Any advice?

Scan it with Peugeot Planet.
If your lucky it will be just a airbag fault, if your unlucky it will come back crash data stored.
If you had the larger 3 line mfd fitted I reckon it would display AIRBAG FAULT

Unfortunately, I don't have Peugeot Planet or any of the cables for it. Might have to just wait and see tomorrow?

First port of call should be to go somewhere who has the Peugeot Planet software and leads to get the codes read get a print out and from there you can better decide what the next move is, Will probably be cheaper going to the independent pug specialist to get them read, any "Specialist" should have the software and leads.
And the car would only beep if something is up with it.

Right, well I personally dont know anyone with the software/cables, so I'll go the independent and see what he can do. He's apparently brilliant with 206s so we'll see how it goes. May be the case that I do not need to go to Peugeot. I'll update tomorrow, cheers guys!
