Hi all, just a quick one if anyone can help. If my airbag has been removed from the doors and been put back again will the airbag light on the dash need resetting

Anyone

Only if you put the ignition on when the airbag is disconnected. If the keys are out then you should not need the light resetting...

Always best practice to take the battery earth lead off whilst doing any work needing airbag disconnection sir

Sorry stan
Thanks Craig, I've just had some body work done on my ff, I've got it back with the airbag light, htc and air susp lights on
I seen that they removed the airbags, but they are saying it's not down to them to sort it outis there anything I can do?

Have you driven it yet? If not, the HTC & A.S. will go out when the steering sensor is reset

Airbag light will need to be reset on diagnostics I'm afraid...

I have Craig, and I've tried lock to lock but still no joy. It's going back in the morning so they can have a look. Also the rear view mirror looks like something has leaked inside ?

Ahhhh now it all makes sense sir...

They have plugged your drivers door electric window switch panel in INCORRECTLY sir... The forward most "lower suspension" button uses the same plug as the "Electric mirror" switch.

So! They have at best knackered your mirror glasses (very expensive) and hopefully if you swap the switches back over the suspension lights will go out!

Craig are you talking about the rear view mirror glass, sorry if I sound stupid

Electrochromatic tinting of three mirrors (one inside & 2 door mirrors) get the wrong signal when the air suspension plug is plugged into it in the drivers door panel... Which is why the fluid has seeped out internally...

Craig I really appreciate that thanks very much I'll let you's know what happens tomorrow
1 more thing will the air bags still work the way they are?

NO sir the Airbags probably will NOT work as is...

My advise would be to invite them to remove the drivers door card whilst you stand over them... Make note of which plugs go into which electrical socket (on the rear of the electric window switch pack) Ill place a large wager on the electric mirror plug has been pulled REALLY tight forward and fitted into the suspension lowering switch socket & visa versa...

If you don't stand over them then they can just lie about the wiring plugs being the wrong way around and you will have NO recourse for the damaged mirror/mirror lenses (at least) maybe even more damage could occur!

Will do thanks very much for all your help

Do let us know how you get on sir

Will do
