What does this fault code mean?
The fault code is intermittent, meaning it comes and goes. The supplemental restraint system module (SRS) has found an airbag or seat belt tensioner fitted, although it is programmed to show that neither should be fitted. The fault is therefore not limited to the front left side airbag. Which code is displayed depends on the wiring circuit the fault is in.
Possible causes
- The SRS module finds an airbag or seat belt tensioner fitted, although it is programmed to show that neither should be fitted
