Airbag B pillemodule 65.77 6945157

Checked the knee airbag, looks ok, thanks for the advice.

I had another go at programming. I managed to talk to the ecu this time in tool32. But when I went back to faults, the system time needs resetting on all 3 modules, central SIM and the 2 b pillars.

How do I reset the system time on all 3 modules at the same time in tools32, or do I have to do them separately?

Thanks
Do them one by one
Thanks, I'll have another go later this week 👌

Can only assume you are still not quite doing it right. I have never had to set the system time on anything other than the module I am replacing.
So all I can suggest is that you need to go through the Tool32 process for each module ?
 
Thanks enuff_zed. Still not working. I tried countless of times going to the procedure, it just doesn't want to sync the time. The module must be faulty. I've been trying to find another module on ebay and emailed a few breakers, no luck. BMW has discontinued it, so cannot buy a new one either.
Do you or you know anyone that has a spare passenger module?
 
Atm, I am very short of SBSLs and don't have any to match yours, sorry.
I managed to find another b pillar module on eBay. Programmed it and I'm getting the same fault code 9886 as the last module... coding, firing circuit" issue involving the left knee airbag (E85) or left head airbag (E6x). Thinking it could now be the passenger airbag. I've disconnected it and there are 4 pins for the 2 stages. Please see attached pics. I presume if I placed 2 (2.2ohm) resistors in pins 1&2 and 3&4, will this work to test if the airbag is faulty?

Hooray, airbag light off, the door airbag connection was dodgy. Perhaps the 1st eBay module still works, handy as a spare.

Many thanks to @enuff_zed and @bigwinn for helping me out with the software. I've learnt a lot on this journey, both on INPA and ISTA.

I will now be able to help others with faults/coding around the London area, please mention me if anyone has any issues around my way.

Has anyone upgraded their lower camchain tensioner to the revised part, is it worth doing?
