Unbolt the seat and tip it back for access.
The yellow plug has a black slider on it. You may need a screwdriver under the end of it to start it moving, then simply pull it straight out from the side of the plug. It doesn't detach completely, but as it moves over it slides the plug out of the socket.

Did one this morning. Sure it was 20 but I don’t look really, just judge it by eye

Thanks both- figured it out in the end- just had to push a lot harder on the black clip than felt right!
Airbag light is back On- code says both sat modules and srs have wrong chassis number. Hoping it’s due to a low battery rather than an actual issue?!

The light was on with the same error but did clear and stay off until today. Can’t see someone having changed several modules?bigwinn wrote: ↑Sat Nov 25, 2023 9:31 pmWas the airbag light on before?

Given that the left and right feed back to the centre one, is it worth checking actual vin held in each module using INPA for example?paddy wright wrote: ↑Sat Nov 25, 2023 9:34 pmThe light was on with the same error but did clear and stay off until today.

Battery could cause issues so rule that out and go from there
Use inpa to read the vin stored in each module to check?

Found the leak in the boot- coming from round the light and into the boot- next on the fox list. For the interior leaks any further ideas- the carpets are wet underneath but the roof drain plugs are clear and the door membranes seem fine. My thoughts are wondering if water could have been let in from rain and just needs to dry out?

Even if the membranes look perfect it is a common issue for them to lift from the panel. Bottom edge, about six inches back from the front corner, the metal work dips in and the membrane parts from it. Check there just in case.paddy wright wrote: ↑Sat Dec 02, 2023 11:16 pm Found the leak in the boot- coming from round the light and into the boot- next on the fox list.

I’ll take a look this week. Hopefully it’s a simple fix, thanks again for helping.enuff_zed wrote: ↑Sun Dec 03, 2023 8:30 amEven if the membranes look perfect it is a common issue for them to lift from the panel.
