Airbag Light Before MOT

[Tringaling]

FUCK SAKE it has just come on..!

You reckon i will get away with putting black tape over where the air bag light is?!

Anything else i can try before tomorrow morning please!

[daveg1]

I passed mine with it on back in feb

[Gazer]

wont fail with it on :y:

[sr666]

under the passenger seat mate there's 2 orange wires connected together,

Unclip then re attac them and it should go off

if not then worry mate

[Tringaling]

I couldnt see how to clip them off, do i need a flat head?

[Jack]

It won't fail with the light on, don't worry :)

[Tringaling]

So it will defo pass with airbag light on?!

[sr666]

no. I'm pretty sure it will fail as it's safety hazard

Not sure how then unclip tbh mate m,ine's on bit I cba to sort it yet

[Gazer]

So it will defo pass with airbag light on?!

mine passed with it on couple weeks ago,
but the year before went down as an advisory

[Jack]

Pretty sure it's only the ABS light being on that's a fail, airbag is ok.

[Saamuell]

Just take the clocks out and remove the bulb...

[Tringaling]

If i get it back and it fails i will be PISSED lol

[Tringaling]

Effort at this time of night when its tomorrow unless you got an easy way to?

[rob_s]

will pass mine has done

and there is pretensioner wires under both seats! if you have recently adjusted either of them its problalby just knocked the connection

and they unclip by hand its pritty self explanatary tbh

[Tringaling]

I know they are seatbelt pretensioners and connect somehow to the airbag but i couldnt get them off..

Saying that it is dark and i am parked on a slope!

[Tontsy]

Should just advise it...or put tape over it, if tour that worried.

I wouldnt fail it.

Abs lights will fail though.

[dave_1]

not sure how it works wether it depends on if you have standard seats then it should be on as it shows there is a fault somewhere mines been tested twice now with the light on and passed without anything been said but ive changed my seats to buckets

[taylor93]

depends what sorta garage your getting it done at,


if its dodgy backstreet then it'll pass no probs!

Ok mate, cheers i am sure i will leave it and let it be..

Putting tape over it might make them fail it anyway?

Hmm i dont do dodgy MOT's

[Delboy]

it should go through mot bro, half of the oldet cars on the roads dont even have airbag's so it shouldnt be a worry..best bet would be to take the bulb out from behind, only need a set a torx keys and its a 5 minute job..had to do it like 10 times yesterday lol

Its all down to if its fitted originally then it should be working though isn't it?

I've heard it might fail as thats why people use resistors when putting aftermarket steering wheels in but not sure how true this is?

[Tringaling]

MY mate who is a mechanic says it wont fail too so hopefully you are right..

It is tomorrow at 1045 :\ any last minute things to do you reckon aside from the obvious

[Mr_P]

Airbag's are not checked as part of an MOT.

Most they can do is advise you on it, cannot fail you.

100% deffo.
