Is there anyone out there that can verify a tool to reset the airbag light? I am over 3 hours from the nearest dealer and figure I should start to do my own maintenance. I have heard that there is a tool for resetting the airbag light on BMWs, but I have not heard that it definitely works on minis. I wanted to make sure before purchasing.
The Peake SRS BMW airbag light reset tool might or might not work:
"Does the SRS tool work on the Mini? Basically no. We've had some customers use it and it worked, but others have found that it did not work. We can not guarantee that it will, so you would be buying it at your risk. At this time there are not plans to release an airbag tool for the Mini in the near future. We do appreciate your input.
dealers are too far away,with funky "only MINI dealer" maintenance = mad owners
I posted a similar question a while ago. The local foreign car shop, could not do it, he did'nt have the proper plug in with his Snap-on unit. The non MINI, BMW dealer did erase the code ,but did not want to do it until I told him I bought the car there and was considering another purchase. However now the car threw the code ,lit the light for no reason . The tooling would cost thousands I believe.
