As per the title, I'm getting a dash warning light and the error code '93AD - Side Airbag, Passenger' that I can't clear.

Sometimes, randomly, it will actually clear, and then a few 100 miles later come back again. Thinking this might be a loose connection or something I've checked the big yellow under-seat connector for any corrosion/looseness but can't see any issues.

Anyone had this issue/found a solution?
 
On the e61 that code shows as a seat occupancy sensor?

Can you get a bypass if there is any link between the light coming on and some sitting in the seat?

[E89] Airbag fault 93AB - how to resolve?

Hello everyone, I have recently diagnosed my Z4 E89 2010 with a 93AB airbag fault code (passenger side, stage 1). I thought it would be the occupancy seat sensor, so I mounted a bypass for that, cleared the code and then car worked for a little while, but then while driving warning light...

It doesn't seem to be connected to anyone sitting in the seat (my wife very rarely joins me now we've got an 8 month old!). And thanks yeah I had seen that thread, I just wondered if it being 93AD it was perhaps not related to the seat sensor, but happy to try anything to resolve as obviously currently it'll fail it's MOT.

Is this the kinda thing I need?

Having had similar on the e85 I would take time to use contact cleaner on all the connections to see if that makes a difference?

But that bypass looks about right
