    Hi Folks.

    Have a 07 Mini cooper, currently has the airbag indicator light on the dash. It doesn't take much digging around to learn this is a general fault with Mini's, usually due to the sensor underneath the passenger seat which can trip the warning light really easily.

    Problem is, any warning light now fails an NCT. I had a 02 Mini previously, same problem. However you could buy a $5 gadget online which switched off the warning. There doesn't appear to be anything available to do that for the later model bar going to a mechanic / dealer. I bought one for the later model which can reset the warning lights, EXCEPT for the airbag which is aparantly on it's own circuit or something.

    Anyone out there have this problem and know of any workaround bar paying out to have it reset every time it reappears? Wouldn't bother only it now fails the NCT ffs.

    Cheers

    Probably air bag module not overly expensive to sort. Codes need to be read though no getting around it
