Default is it a problem to disconnect the battery (air bag light)??

I have read on the forums that if your airbag light is onitmight be fixed by disconecting the battery. I will try this but just wanted to know if this will cause any problems with the Key, immobilizer/remote central locking??? does any one know, cheers rich

You'll need:
radio code
reset clock
reset one touch window up down

Do a TBA.

Yup, and I doubt that the airbag light will go off by disconnecting the battery........normally there is a real problem when that light comes on, not just a stuck relay.

It's kinda strange, I have disconnected my battery several times and my radio has never asked for a code. How do you reset the one touch window up/down?

Radio codes are strange, sometimes you needem, sometimes you dont. Its nice to know you might need it thou. To reset the one touch raise the window all the way and release the switch. The raise the window again. You may be able to hear and audible click from the motor. In any case that should reset the one touch.

Throttle body alignment. Do a search.
