SRS Front Right Malfunction Mercedes A180

[@stone96]

Great video which helps a lot.... my fault is intermittent, I could turn a corner and the fault occurs, then going in a straight line it clears, but it sometimes comes on in a straight line, would this be the squib-clockspring issue????? Thanks

@@stone96 I’d say so mate! Try pressing the horn whiles rotating the steering wheel from lock to lock. See if the horn drops out

@@EllsAutoCare I did a diagnostic on it last night and said it was the belt buckle open circuit/short to live!!!!!!! so shorted the 2 wires out then did a re test and said the resistance was too low, going to try a 100ohm resistor on the circuit, not sure if it will clear the fault/ but its due MOT in 3 weeks.

Got the same issue here. Would a second hand replacement need to be programmed?

[@EllsAutoCare]

I don’t know in all honesty

Can it be simply a airbag sensor fault or is it unlikely in mu car ?

[@EllsAutoCare]

@@TanjawiPrice without looking mate I have no idea what the fault is. But it could be yeah

[@Gofast1234]

Why not check the seats with theyr airbags for faults ?

[@EllsAutoCare]

Because the codes were for the clock spring ?
