Hi CT. Apologise for my lack of knowledge. What function does the OBD scanner perform? The mechanic says he found error codes with the OBD scanner but now they are cleared yet the airbag light is still on, on the instrument panel. Does this sound correct and possible? I thank you for the information and instruction using the TC and CG terminals. Is this process specifically for resetting the airbag light on the instrument panel.

An OBD scanner is purely for engine and emissions. The SRS is a system external of that. The procedure is just for reading and resetting the SRS codes.

G'day CT. Went through the process several times. Still have a problem. The light does not go out at step 4. Do you have an idea of what that indicates. BTW. I accidently posted this same message on another thread. Please ignore that one. Regards Bert

When you do step 2, do you see the flashing pattern of the SRS light? If so, what numbers can you make out from it?

Not sure how I decipher the number sequence. It seemed to flash quite quickly.

The pattern keeps repeating. If you can't tell the difference between the short and long pauses, take a video and email it to me.
