	Annoying airbag light « on: May 16, 2015, 03:48:48 PM »

I'll give it a try on this forum, I have the classic A4 B5 problem with my airbag light constantly shining in my face.
I read the fault code and it says: side airbag, driver seat. Short to ground.

Anyone with some good DIY solutions to get rid of it?

measure the resistance of the passenger seat which is known to be good, get same resistor, disconnect driver seat and use resistor to bridge the wires.

Or get a new seat.

I did the resistor solution. Took two 10 ohm resistors and shoved them in parallel into the connector under the drivers seat. Worked like a charm.
