airbag problem 99 c2

[rallygabe]

Hey guys,

Got my Durametric in hand finally. Plugged in to my 99 C2 to diagnose my airbag light.

All I get is "code 0" module failed to initialize.

Am I missing some step to accessing the airbag unit? Can durametric not help me on my 99?

Off to read some help files/the manual :) thoughts?

thanks!

There is no fault code "0" for the airbag circuit.

Perhaps it can not communicate with the control module? Disconnect and try again a couple of times (ignition on right?).

If you still have a the same error then find someone with a Porsche PST2 or PIWIS and see if they can read the circuit.

Could be a bad control module I guess but usually you get a real fault.

I was affraid of that.

Tried a couple of times over the last couple of days while doing other diagnostics. (fixed my high idle thanks to the durametric! yay)

The airbag light is on, so I am assuming that the control module is plugged in! :) I will see if Zimbrick's in madison can help me out the next time I am up there.

Thanks Loren!

So I went out and tried scanning one more time.

This time I payed a little more attention:

When I key on all of the idiot lights come on (bulb check) and after a couple moments the airbag light blinks (off then back on again)

I also payed more attention to the durametric- I can only access the DME, Alarm, and live values. Everything else gives the same "Module failed to initialize" error.

Any thoughts? :)
