Xantia HDI Airbag light flashing!!!

Unread post by wrinklet1 »

Hi,
Well, the airbag warning light on my Xantia HDI 90bhp is flashing all the time. I have had the steering wheel bag off and things seem okay there.
So, which cables do I need to cut and solder together on the seats??? What colour are they? Orange? if so, do they have any resisters on them?

Paul,

It will be the plugs UNDER your seat, unplug them and reconnect them, if that doesn't work unbolt the seat and remove ONE PLUG at a time cut the plugs off each side and re solder them together.. I Said one plug at a time so you dont get mixed up.. Theres no resisters under the seats as I could see anyway..

Regards
Paul

I think on a Mk 2 Xantia, the connectors under the seat cause the side airbag light to flash. The ribbon connector behind the steering wheel normally causes the main airbag to flash.

If the problem has gradually got worse, and seemed to be triggered while driving, it is probably the ribbon connector
