Default You guys saved me £212+VAT!!

I posted about my airbag light that had come on all of a sudden a few weeks ago, and been on ever since, it's been annoying me so much that i dropped it in at subaru independent up the road from me for them to have a look at, after 3 hours they called me and told me that there was an issue with the airbag reset modules, not knowing anything about airbag systems i told them i'd collect the car and stick it in with them this weekend to sort out, last night i had a quick search of the forum and found a post which said to wiggle the connector under the drivers seat, guess what.... airbag light GONE. I phoned the independent just a few moments ago who told me they had never heard of this solution, and that it's most likely coincidence. Anyway, needless to say, £254.40 saved and no airbag light so thanks!

Nice!! It always pays to have a good thorough search. All the little niggly bits I've found with my car I've sorted through here

You can now put that money towards upgrades

Default Airbag Light On

My Airbag Light came on last week - read this thread and wiggled the wire connection under the driver seat and to my delight no more airbag light. Recommended thread hence my feedback - thanks.

Because they were going to charge £250 to wiggle a wire.
