Coding Stage 1 Airbag to F30 340i

GCoe04 · 05-14-2022, 04:21 PM

Hi guys. I just finished coding the stage 1 air bag into my 2016 F30 340i. I still have the air bag light on. And when I read the codes it now says that the passenger airbag code does not match. Unsure what I did wrong. If anyone can give me an insight on what the issue could be and how to clear the fault light. I’d appreciate it!

North American cars need dual-stage airbags, not single-stage. Would not recommend that you try to code in and use a euro single-stage airbag. Best case you'll have faults, worst case you crash and it doesn't deploy properly (or at all).
