Hi,

I've got the following codes showing up on the Airbag module:

01228 - Airbag Cut-Off Switch for Passenger Side (E224)
010 - Open or Short to Plus - MIL ON
Freeze Frame:
Fault Status: 11101010
Fault Priority: 2
Fault Frequency: 1
Reset counter: 255
Time Indication: 0
Date: 2064.00.00
Time: 00:00:00

02756 - Redundant signal path of Airbag cut-off switch - front passenger side (E224)
010 - Open or Short to Plus - MIL ON
Freeze Frame:
Fault Status: 11101010
Fault Priority: 2
Fault Frequency: 1
Reset counter: 255
Time Indication: 0
Date: 2064.00.00
Time: 00:00:00


The airbag light is on and the passenger airbag off light is flashing. Does the module need replacing?


Thanks.

I've also got a problem with the ESP sensor unit, it doesn't seem to have and power getting to it. Could it be a faulty relay?

Freeze Frame:
Fault Status: 01100100
Fault Priority: 2
Fault Frequency: 1

Time Indication: 0

Freeze Frame:
Hex Value: 0x0000
Hex Value: 0x4222

Assuming you've tried to clear the errors, I would check if you have the airbag cut of switch in the glovebox 1st, if so then remove glovebox & check if the connector is plugged in ok, although if you have a glovebox light & this is working then chances are its plugged in ok, but somewhere to start.

I've checked the glovebox switch and swapped it for a working one without any result. I've also cleared the errors and they keep coming back.


Is the next step check all the wiring?

Drop the box & check connector.

done that everything looks ok, checked each plug... I'm going to take the centre console out and have a good look at the wiring loom from the module.

I have a replacement airbag module I could fit and see if that makes any difference.
