Default Air bag light

I have the dreaded/common problem of the air bag fault. The light will come on the message centre but not on the light just below.
I have changed the plugs in the seats but the problem persists. I removed the instrument cluster to see if a previous owner had taped over the led, but I found that the LEC for the airbag looked "blown" could this be causing the airbag fault making it an open circuit or something?

Nah, it's more than likely been doctored in some fashion, I've never seen a faulty LED on any IPK ever

You can count yourself lucky the display hasn't been ripped off as I found on a members car last year

You would be better to get your car on T4, apart from anything else you can find out what is causing your cruise not to work too
