Airbag error and the connector....
Evening all,
Got the usual airbag fault on the dash of my facelift cdti. Had it a few month ago and marinabrian fixed it by cleaning the connector block up, but its back again. So, under the driver sewt I go aaànd rag the wire about and it stopped for a week but its back. This will sound daft but how the hell do you seperate the connector block?? Ive never seen one like it and it looks over complicated for the sake of joining 2 wires. Can I snip it out and replace it with bullet connectors?? Cheers all. |

Better to snip it and solder the wires rather than use bullet connectors.

If you'd prefer to retain a connector this type has been used by quite a few members. |

Nah, buy a tin of Vaseline and repeat what I did, the vaseline is the prevention and the cure

I’m planning to fit Mk2 facelift seats to my Mk1 ZTT and so have bought a set of the new connectors mentioned above - they do three and two pin versions.
Any thoughts or suggestions welcome. |
