Can you help an 'ol bird?

Post by ITBarbie » Wed Aug 21, 2013 8:52 pm

Hi

I did post on the door handle fix, how to section but no biters so in true Barbie style I want my own post :-)

Muffed up on door carrier fix and caused the airbag light to illuminate leaving bmw trying to rob me of £65+ vat to turn a light bulb off.

I've looked at loads of tools on eBay and searched the forum but unsure whats best.  I'm sure I saw that the 1.4.0 is the best  tool for airbag reset but not sure.

I asked Jochen (programmer) who wrote nav coder if it would do it with my resler but he told me that won't do it unless I know the codes.

Can anyone provide me with a link or advice so I can ensure I get the right tool :-)

Pretty please :-)

Hi,

When i changed my battery i got the airbag light on and i just used my BMW scanner 1.4.0 to reset it. Not sure if it works for all errors but it worked on mine.

Thanks for the compliment.  No extracurricular for me I'm afraid.  45 mins though, that's strange as your wife said you arrive a lot faster than that!
