Default video

I'm going to try to post a video. This might not work.



Yes it works.
The observant amongst you may have noticed the SRS icon didn't light this time. But it did light a few minutes earlier.

Yep the airbag icon didn't come on in that video.

Maybe there is a bad connection at the LED that lights up the icon?

That's a possibility. And the airbag fault light, could that be the result of water getting into wiring?
I'll check all connectors when I get the chance.
By the way, there were two other parts to my opening question, no one has had any thoughts about those?

The mystery black connector could be for the seat belt detector/warning light. It wasn't used on UK cars but can be retrofitted if you get the correct two wire seat belt pre-tensioner.

Apologies for the state of my fingers, eczema problems.

This is the connector. I think you can make out what colour the wires are too in this one.



And it's a black wire too, not a shadow of the red or purple one.
