#1: airbag light on? Author: olly, Location: west midsPosted: Thu Jan 12, 2012 1:58 pm ---- Hi all can someone tell me if by connecting a diagnostic software to my 206,will it tell me where the fault is with the airbag,so I can get it repaired? Obviously there are a number of connections linked to the airbag,so want to know will it pinpoint the fault. Cheers.

seat where the Seat Belt Pretensioner is linked in, this connection may need re-doing you might be lucky and get away with cleaning the connector out and reconnecting dont hold me to it im not 100% sure if thats any help at all

NOT on a 206 there isnt, Peugeot / Citroen had already fixed that issue
Only SRS plug you might find under there is for side seat airbags if fitted.

It was a common issue on older PSA stuff with the buckle type pretensioner.
206 the pyrotechnic seatbelt pretensioners are on the actual seatbelt reel in the B pillar.

Reconnected while engine running then restarted and so far so good no airbag light..
Try it, it costs nothing.

No, he really should. He should also set up a video to record him doing it.

Ill have to record the lads at the garage when they scrap the next car, you can have lots of fun with airbags / pretensioners
Have to make the car safe for recycling

#14: Re: airbag light on? Author: skard, Location: UK - NorthPosted: Fri Jan 13, 2012 10:17 am ---- you just missed out on a pug diagnostic interface i sold on here earlier in the week.
i recently had to clear an airbag fault, typically came up for the first time when it was advertised.
what it was - when i removed the stereo and put original back in or when taking out handsfree etc, i somehow nudged the passenger airbag clip under the steering wheel.
i pushed it back tightly even though it felt 'in' anyway and the fault went away. the plugs are known to be very fickle on airbag systems.
#15: Re: airbag light on? Author: olly, Location: west midsPosted: Fri Jan 13, 2012 11:26 am ---- Will the diagnostic check report if there are error codes/crash reports within the module,if so i can get them reset for £30.
