What does this fault code mean?
The ignition cable to the front right side impact airbag has for a longer period been short-circuited to an adjacent ignition cable from another restraint component. The fault requires at least two ignition cables from different restraint systems to be short-circuited to each other.
Possible causes
- Short-circuit between the front right side airbag's cable and another restraint component's cable, such as a curtain or belt tensioner
- Cables from at least two restraint systems must be shorted to each other to produce this fault
What you can do
- 1Read out and note the fault code, clear it, and test drive to see if it returns
- 2Have a workshop start the fault-finding at the cable that runs closest alongside the side airbag's cable
- 3Read out whether other restraint components in the car have fault codes, since the fault needs faults in several
- 4Have a workshop handle the connector to the front right side airbag, as it belongs to the restraint system
Symptoms you may notice2
