Default Have you scanned for codes?

Assuming the bags and associated module are ok, it could be as simple as the underseat connecter needing some electrical contact cleaner spray and dielectric grease. (that's what took care of mine)<ul><li><a href="http://vag-tool.kicks-***.net/locator.aspx">http://vag-tool.kicks-***.net/locator.aspx</a</li></ul>

Default Fixe proobleem an den cleare de codes theen lite be ride of.

Translation: If the airbag light is on its because of a problem with one of the airbags , a problem with either a sensing or diagnostic module or wiring . Just clearing the code will not keep it away. Sometimes its just a wire connection loosened under the seat from people
putting stuff under them. You must fix the defect before clearing the code is effective.
