I wouldn't be doing anything fancy. Just checking connections to start with.

Nothing fancy yet I cleared it out again so far 100miles it has turned off but this airbag light is the curtain as in the side of my seat correct? So when you say check connection look under the seat right?

Look under the seat and you'll see the connectors towards the front. Clean them with deoxit or something similar. When you put them back together, use a zip tie around the connector to keep it super tight. Mine had this problem when I bought the car and despite cleaning the connectors, nothing fixed it until I zip tied them. Sounds stupid, but it worked. I've had the car like 3 years now and no more problems with the damn thing.

Doesn't sound stupid at all that was the fix that most people did on the Audi b5 passenger side
Do you know the color of the airbags wire?

Was looking to go this route

if you are considering going w/m, i have a kit that is taking up space and i have been trying to sell for a while now. originally came from absolute as a matter of fact. same kit as that one but you will need to source a few pieces.

much cheaper than new. pm me if you are interested.
