Hi all,
I took my glove box off a couple of days ago to fix my fan motor that lurks beneath, needed to unplug it completely etc.
Just noticed that the airbag light won’t go off, I’ve tried switching it on/off again using key slot in glove box but makes no difference.
Any help would be much appreciated please?
Got a 2010 A3 Sportback 2.0 TFSi.
Thanks
Smudge.
 
You need vcds to turn the light off

My Audi mechanic neighbour brought his magic box home and fixed it. Cheers.

Correct.
He has a Snap-On VCDS device that diagnosed the air bag error and the blower motor that I was fixing.
Took 5 mins to clear and check everything. It was because I turned on the ignition whilst the glove box was unplugged he said and just needed resetting. Won’t do that again.
Hope this helps any other members.
