You have an inspector wise enough about Ferrari's to know that? Most cars don't even have an airbag light that comes on and then goes off...
All cars 96+ OBD2 compliant have a lamp check feature for safety systems. No inspector would pass a car like that here.
My 2008 BMW does not have any light that comes on / off on startup. None. PS - where is "here"? Adding location to your profile is always helpful.
Jeanne's 2016 2 series has a indicator. It's combined with the seat belt icon. Image Unavailable, Please Login
All cars with airbags have an airbag light... it's part of the safety system, a quick google of 2008 bmw shows the light..
I'll have a look tomorrow. As John said, if it's part of the seatbelt light, I never made the distinction.
Your inspector is pretty thorough because I have a few friends in Cali that have done that with no issues from. The inspector
Did you actually short the pin. I was too scared because my plug was not the exact. Same as the picture in the manual. I thought others were the same and we all chickened out.
What did you do then Others have wired it direct to one of the lights. Next to it then it only lights when the other one lights.
I think I have a copy of the standard provincial inspection form, I'll check tomorrow. They are pretty tight here, no rips in drivers seat, must have cats, defroster has to work, no rust that isnt surface rust etc I cut the ribbon for the airbag light and soldered it to the seat belt light ribbon. Comes on and goes off with seatbelt light.
No rips in driver seat? Wow. What does that have to do with saftey? I asked your location but I see you mentioned "province " so I assume Canada.
Yes BC, it's old an school thought process from when seats had springs so it wouldn't poke the driver... seat belt light seems to only come on for a check, with car running it didnt come on again wether belt was clipped in or not. my thought on wiring it to seat belt light is if the seat belt isnt done up, the air bag shouldn't work anyway, so if it does come on with it inspector will assume airbag system is deactivated when seat belt is undone, if it ever does light up.
I tried grounding the pin. No change, no explosion. Its definitely missing the 3rd pin required for resetting. Maybe a Euro thing?
Kind of weird. The manual talks about ground the pin for between 1 and 5 sec to read the air bag code. Then about grounding the pin for 5 to 10 sec to reset. Sound like the way you check codes on a 2.7 ECU with the button. Well beautiful day here. Time to hit the beach.
Contacted them and the guy had no idea why they had the 355 listed. They said they can do the 360 but not the 355. Just my luck.
I had a light at the time and I shorted it to everything. Nothing worked. Mitchel if I recall had vetted this as well. Don’t know what model or genre the wsm was written for but it doesn’t work on NA OBDII cars
