Default Let me clarify..

I was going to edit that last post, but no edit?

Anyway, on older Audi's, the airbag light needs to be reset using the 2x2 connectors located under/behind the climate control unit in the dash. My car (a '92) is right on the line of when VAG-COM started connecting to the airbag control unit.

Hopefully, Avalon can connect to my airbag controller using the older VAG-Com connection under the hood. Though, I would like a back up in case I need to dig into the dash. Most of the older Audi owners just have the cheapie tool, rather than a full blown Rosstech setup.

Thanks! I get to dig in the dash to find the connectors, as the underhood VAG Commie doesn't connect to the airbag module.

If you go to the feedback forum and ask for it or send Kris Hansen a PM they should give you edit privileges. They had it turned off because of the childish behavior at the software switch.
