Agreed. I'll get Vauxhall to ut it on Tech2 when it goes in for its annual service in September. | |

Sounds promising - thanks guys. I've been tld to take the bulb out too - but although it may stop the annoying light in my peripheral vision, I'd sooner have an airbag in the event of an accident! | |

Unless it's something that only Vauxhall can sort out, I normally buy the parts from Vauxhall, and take it to my mechanic for him to fit on my car. | |

Thats true. Just gotta look in my log book and see when the Service is actually due. First one since my new suspension. Last one, needed a new backbox een thos it was only 3 years old, apparently it had corroded on the inside. | |

May as well get it done while you got other stuff to do, they might have a bit of blood in their veins and not charge you extra for resetting the airbag ECU on Tech2 as you're already spending a lot of money with them! | |

Oh no - I know im gonna have to pay gor half an hours labour! But I think Tech2 is the only way. | |

I suspect that you may have disturbed some wiring to the airbag ECU thing, hence why the warning light on your dash is on. | |

Thansk for the advice everyone. I think I'll do what Kerry suggested and take it into Vauxhall with my cheque book! | |

dont know if this will help u but when i got my car my airbag light was on so i took it to my mate at vauxhall and he got it on tech 2 and reset it. he told me that on some vehicles if the power supply is broken to the air bag system and then reconnected this could put the air bag light on, Or that the airbag light can come on when there is a "power surge". and that while ever the light is on the airbag will not go off in an accident. after he reset it the light never came on again. | |

Sounds like your just going to have to get it fixed at service, probably the safest thing to do | |

Sorry can't help with the electrical problem, but if your airbag warning light is on, the car will fail its MOT. | |
