If it is the driver side airbag you can bet on the contact unit behind the steering wheel has gone bad. Does your stereo controls and horn work?

The tester can fail this on either part of the safety restraint system condition or general vehicle condition; if in doubt ask the tester you're going to use, they're normally approachable guys that'll give an honest reply.

Hi, thanks for the replies, I've just popped into my local Saab dealer who had a techII and they diagnosed the fault as an open circuit drivers side. It appears thet this is a common problem and under the seat there is a socket that can require re-securing, problems gone.

They had a good look at my car while I was there, don't often get modified Saabs he says. - and we had a good chat, they didn't charge me for the diagnostic so everythings good again.

Spatl - they had a good look at the MBC+A!:lol:
