Great video. I take it that both AirBag Crash and AirBag Component Protection are not both stored on the EPROM, only crash? I had a scenario about a year ago, Audi was heavily flooded, over centre consol. Needed another Airbag Control Module. Owner purchased a secondhand one, I had to purchase an Odis program with pass through device and then pay for Geko. It worked fantastic, more than what the Audi main dealer could do here in Spain. Just wondering if the Geko would work for Airbag Crash?. Cheers
@davesterl3 жыл бұрын
CP prevents the use of a secondhand module. No CP in the airbags themselves
@graz-e.m.s3 жыл бұрын
But with another seat and belt, does the airbag module need to have the EPROM chip coded via EPROM reader/writer, or could it be coded via Geko? Sorry for the questions, just like info in case a scenario comes up.
@davesterl3 жыл бұрын
no bother, the airbags and belt will not need to be coded in, as far as im aware. i'll maybe do a part2 when we get all the bits to let you know

Very odd that PS module would permit a reset without a valid coming from the relevant interface ??? Lucky for the Lad you were aware of this...Unfortunate he had the mishap in the first place. Oh well much, much worse results can & have ensued when the “crash” Register trips...Interesting Dave. Cheers
@davesterl3 жыл бұрын
Yes ian, this is a bit of a workaround as there is now no communication from the airbag module so the crash signal is not sent. The snap on wouldnt clear the PS and i didn't expect it to. The owner initially found it strange all this would happen from hitting a kerb but the piezo crash sensor in the b pillar 'saw' an impact. Hope u found it interesting, cheers dave

Hi dave I have the exact same problem. Its currently a skoda fabia. I have replaced airbags and seatbelts. I also removed the airbag unit and had the crash data deleted. But when I connected it up again the power steering light is still there along with seatbelt and airbag light. I tried using snap on tool but it won't remove the power steering fault.

Dave, daughters MK2 Leon hit a branch on N/S front. Reports mechanical failure of steering angle sensor. It's in the rack on this model. Ever done one, any advice? Oh and wheelbase was 5mm out but I have jacked it back to "dead on". Steering wheel still out a couple of degrees from centre though.

@@ghgggh173 take it to a VAG specialist (so any 3rd party specialist will do) with a new seat in the car. It must have the yellow airbag plug connected to the factory wire coming from the car. The vag specialist will erase the crash data and code the new airbag to the vehicle. (VW Polo 2006 1.2 5dr) This process will restore the power steering. It takes them 5 minutes to clear it and the car will run like new.

Hi Dave Have tried quiggs in rasharkin for a belt? There is another vw breaker in burnfoot Donegal. Problem is I am sure you know most breakers will want to sell the front pair together. Did the passenger pretensioner not go off? Another problem is Royal mail will not post airbag or pretensioners due to explosive contained within. Appartently they will destroy if found.
