SEAT Altea XL - How to reset Air Bag warning light? - Johngalaxy

Hi, I needed replace the Heater Blower Fan Resistor as it was only working on one speed setting. When replacing the resistor i removed the glove box and disconnected the airbag connector block from the side of the glove box. I installed the fan resistor, reconnected the airbag connector block and put the glove box back in place.

Now the airbag warning light is lit on the dash. Could someone advise me how to reset the light?

Any help much appreciated.

John

It cannot be done any way other than with specialist diagnostic equipment. Search the VAG forums to find someone near you with VCDS who can help you. I have it and I'm in Hampshire if it helps.

Thanks for the information. I live at Belfast. I will check around my local area.

Also, you may wish to investigate why the resistor went - if it was due to the fan not turning properly and drawing too much current, there may be a danger of it catching fire as per Vauxhall Zafiras.
