Default Re: Airbag light permenantly on.... HELP ! failed mot :-(

Hi Chris,

Many thanks for your advice,much appreciated :-) I will get the drain pipe looked at definatley, I actually had a stroke of luck last night and found a garage local to me, they have the correct system to get through to the airbags and have confirmed both drivers and passenger are coming up with faults, they had a quick look under the seats and found my drivers side has a wire has snapped but couldn't locate the problem for passenger, but it was past their closing time, so I was very lucky that they looked at it at all ! :-P

They did try to clear the errors but they wouldn't clear, I have now booked it in with them as they do need to take the seats out as the fault codes are for the wires underneath.

Now I forsee alot of people coming across this problem as it's now an MOT Fail, Chrysler eventually quoted ( I Had to chase them up ! ) for the 3 hours labour to take seats out at £79.00 per Hour & £80.00 for Diagnostic !! And then there would of been the cost of parts and more labour !!
The Independant garage I have found has quoted me £100.00 to take the seats out & £20.00 for the diagnostic, Saving £200.00 !!!
So if anyone would like anymore information on the garage I've found in Burton on Trent, please inbox me and I'd be happy to help :-)
G :-)
