Hello all,
New MINI owner here / first post. On my 2003 Cooper, my airbag light came on. When I scanned it, It gave the code of 61- buckle passenger. I checked the under seat connections, and they APPEARED to be okay. I have searched on this site and on BMW sites, and it sounds like it is possibly a switch in the buckle itself? Has anyone experienced this, and if so, is the buckle serviceable? ie taking it apart and cleaning it? Or do I need to get a new buckle? I just had enough time at the car to check the connectors and then had to leave.
