Airbag lights come on, vag com needed?

[RichIbizaSport]

Hi guys. Im currently in the process of building a carputer for my ibiza. Ive just had the center console out for a trail fit of the screen. Now my airbag light is on, so ive obviously knocked a wire out somewhere. Ive gone through all the wires i can see and had a twiddle/made sure there connected properly.

I assume the airbag light is going to stay on until the vag com is cleared?

I dont understand all this vag com malarky! whats needed exactly?

Does anyone happen to live near Hull with vag com?

im not certain on the beezers but on most cars the airbag control module is located under the centre consol but if all is plugged in ect then it will be the case of finding some1 near you with vag.com

the lamp for the passenger side airbag which sits in the facia

think he means the airbag light on on the dials not on the dash but if it is just turn the key the activate in the glovebox

nah they had a problem with them a while back and was caused by a poor contact in the lamp pulling the warning light on in the cluster/dash panel insert

 

[rashcupra]
