airbags dont get coded, if the bag popped from a crash there will be crash data stored in the module and the module can be cleared two times of such data.

I looked at the connections on the unit and saw they were bent... so i bought a used airbag from ebay as well as connectors (to make sure the plastic connector covers arent broken). Still didnt fix it. The service techs from bmw said i need to code the airbag to the car, but they can only code a brand new one. So they said i need a program to do a used one. Im hoping this is the issue as i havent touch anything else. Thoughts? |

if the ignition was turned on with the airbag disconnected you just need to reset the codes from the airbag module.

As amrazM said, you likely just need to clear the airbag codes. This can be done via INPA.
I did an F83 seat conversion in my E93. During the install process, any time I'd disconnect the seat airbag (yellow plugs), I'd have to clear the airbag module via INPA. Just doing a general code clearing didn't do the trick, there was a specific area within INPA to clear the airbag code if I recall correctly. |

There is absolutely no coding or programming of an airbag. I’ve no joke probably replaced over 1000 from recalls over the years. You’re warning light is likely due to installation error. The “bridge” on the airbag connectors must be open, then connector must be fully inserted into the airbag and then and only then close the bridge on the connector. If not done that way you will get an airbag light every time and it won’t clear until you disconnect it and reinstall properly.
