Airbag light not resettable

1652 Views 4 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  Shredder
Hello,

this is my first post, my Name is lokako, I'm 22 Years old, live in Germany and work in an IT company.

I'm driving a V40 1.9D built in 2001 with over 250.000 miles (400.000km).

Unfortunately my car showed a airbag light when I started it last thursday.

Right now it's pretty cold here in Germany (-15 degrees Celsius), so the car did not start at first try, after second try it started but showed the airbag light.

I tried to reset/delete the fault code with an OBD-Scanner (ICarSoft CR Pro), but it shows an internal error.

Does someone have an idea how to fix this?

Best regards, lokako

In the USA there are companies that can reset the srs module if it is triggering a light. (Myairbags.com is one) I think i saw one listing on ebay who was located in the UK somewhere.
In my recent research it seems they are not resettable by the obd2.
The SRS is not resettable using an OBDII tool. You need a VIDA/DICE or something similar.
You can do it with a tool like this; I have one and have done it.


It does not give you the customization options as Vida/Dice, but it's handy and easier to use for the majority of the custom Volvo/Saab protocols..

If you read his post, he mentions he has an ICarsoft CR Pro.
