So yesterday I installed a 3 spoke steering wheel from a 06 R53.
I have to say it looks a 100X better.





But know I have the dreaded Airbag light. Now Before anyone says you have to unhook the battery and blah blah blah for 150 years so the light doesn't go on. I did that..


On another note I tried clearing the light with INPA and it came back on.


So know I have two questions.

1.) Does INPA have the ability to remove Airbag lights?
"Meaning even though it can access it and attempt to turn it off is it allowed too" The reason I ask this is because I'm thinking maybe it doesn't support it 100%.


2.) Below is screen shot of what INPA is telling me is wrong the interesting part is ZK6 is the drivers side rear air bag, these cars don't have them or do they?

Here's a reference



For example the driver side only has airbags 0,4,8 & 2 is for the seatbelt so 6 shouldn't even be showing. Unless the car has 8 air bags which I doubt but maybe it does and I'm wrong.


So in short I cant even clear my airbag light so its obvious there's an issue especially if the light go's off then right back on after clearing it. So I'm trying t figure out if I should try the autologic tool or a dealer to clear it or if I actually have an issue which I think I do. Maybe a lose connection or did I damage to clock spring?

 

Did you get the control buttons to work with your stereo?

 

I have an aftermarket radio so no.

 

My guess is there's something wrong with the airbag internals or contacts. It's typically plug and play.

Was it second hand ?

 

Dave, it was but the car it came out of had no issues, I'm thinking its a lose connection at the airbag or I should also install the newer clock spring. The biggest issue is not knowing if it's going to take since I don't have the means to reset the light at my disposal. So I have to get a chance to get everything in one spot and start by resetting it, them swapping the clock spring and finally going back to the old air bag.
