Title: What have I done now? lol
Post by: MJR on April 22, 2011, 10:19:07 pm
Ok today decided to see what this Bury handsfree thingy I have in my car was all about lol

So took out main console, stereo etc to have a peek, but looks like it was factory fitted, so gonna leave it and see if I can get a cradle for my mobile.

Problem is, I put everything back on fine etc but now dash is flashing up that I have an Airbag fault (with airbag light staying on)

What the hell did I do wrong?  :signLOL:

Did you turn the ignition on with the top vent unplugged?

It's more than just a light as your air bags now won't trigger in an accident.
