I had a nightmare with mine and gave up in the end. The wiring had been cut etc. in the end I cut a wire on the airbag ecu but I have removed all the airbags anyway

Afternoon folks,

It's myself and Rich that are having this problem.

I've been searching most of the afternoon on here and have drawn a blank with phase one seat airbag wiring. Loads of tips on phase two, but the wiring seems different??

In short, there are three plugs now loose under the seat. A single pin round plug, a brown two pin plug and a blue two pin plug. Logic tells me, ones for the seatbelt pre-tensioner, ones a seatbelt warning cable and the other is the side airbag??

We have tried a 3.3ohm fused restistor in both the Brown and Blue plug, and the airbag and serv light are shining like a beacon in the dash! LOL

Any ideas on what stops the light. Trying not to be a butcher with the wiring...... however if needs must and all that....


Cheers!

Matt

Easiest way in all Honesty is just spend 10 mins taking the dash and dials out and pull the small SMD light for this warming symbol out, job done and no mess, will take 15 mins and cost nothing.

Mot regs say the light has to come on and go off.

Do it properly, take it to a specialist with the right equipment to reprogram the ecu.

I gave up in the end and got Mike at Rentech to knock them out through clip.

Just leave them take it to a friendly mot station and explaine you've changed the seats and I'f there decent they'll just mot it and ignore it if uve got buckets then im
unassuming the rear is stripped out so they'll be able to see that it's a more track focused car than say mrs jones 08 plate focus ....

Assuming * apologies I phone auto correct is sometimes more hassle than good

Thanks for the replies guys, I can imagine it getting all serious soon, the dash coming out so I can fit an non-passenger airbag dash top, then hunting down the airbag ecu and removing the whole srs system!! LOL

Failing that Rich'll have to pop it into a Renault specialist with the right software and get the light taken off properly, and part with some £££age!!

 

[Dan@SJM]

Where are you based? We are pretty well spread out in terms of specialists.

Pulling out the whole system won't work either Unfortunatly.

It'll take all of 5mins to sort out properly.

It does if you remove every trace and terminate all the wires / connectors never had a problem on my stripped PH-1 (it did take a solid weekend to strip the interior loom though).
