2003 left airbag control module 6933985

Welcome to the forum. (Edit: noticed you've been on 3 years! Sorry)
Are you aware you can also fit any of these that say 'exchangeable'?
Sadly, I don't have any of those at the moment.

Are you also aware you need to code the module with the VIN and the system time?

Using the Eidebas suite of programmes via a dedicated cable and a laptop.
Depending where you are, there may be one of us close enough to help out?

This is the way to do it:

BTW, on Sunday I have someone coming all the way up from Yeovil for me to sort his. He has a new one fitted but is bringing a spare just in case as it's such a long way to come. The nunmbers are compatible with yours. If we don't need the spare I will see if he'll sell it on.
 
Any updates on this, did you fix it?
Oh hi, sorry I forgot to get back to you.
It's a long story, but eventually we did fix it, but only by using the spare he brought with him.
I'm guessing you still don't have a suitable replacement for yours?

I am trawling for every one I can find, but that batch of numbers is still proving extremely elusive.
 
Hi
Yes still looking for the 6933985 part.
I have a cable but not the software, do you know where I can find the software?
Thanks for all your help.
Software used to be free but unfortunately Bimmergeeks have been clamped down on. I'm not sure where to purchase it from tbh.

In the meantime, if a suitable module crops up I'll let you know.
Likewise, if you find a brreaker with the correct one then I'd be interested in the centre and right modules. :thumbsup:
 
No still not fixed, can't find any modules.
I'm not sure the module is faulty?
Symptoms are:-
Turn on ignition, light doesn't go out.
Clear the error the light stays off as long as you don't switch it off.
As soon as you switch off and on again the light reappears.

Sounds right. It does a self test on start up so you clear the fault and then next start it finds it again.
What codes did you get?
Did one a few days back and the fault said the rear left door airbag was faulty. As there aren't any rear doors it was fairly plain it was the module, as they are based on earlier E46 ones.

Anyhow, I 'may' have located one with the correct number. Trouble is everyone is picking up on these things now and the prices are creeping up.
All being well I should have it in my hand by the end of the week.
