Title: Airbag Code
Post by: accampos88 on March 11, 2017, 10:36:42 pm

Hi all, my airbag light has been on for a while, now the MOT is coming I decided to have a look at it, looked on the great web of information and it all led to the connections under the seat, so I did the repair (soldered the wires), but when I got a mate of mine to clear the error it came up with

00589 - Airbag 1 squib circuit, passenger
- below lower regulation limit threshold
- permanent

anyone have any ideas? will replacing the passenger airbag solve it?

thanks in advance
