There may be an issue with the ground connection. Consider connecting a jumper lead from the negative battery terminal to the engine block to see if any response occurs. I also possess a 2016 Clubman SD, which I recognise to be quite complex. Additionally, verify that the ground wire located at the centre rear of the rocker cover is not damaged.
I assume it will not be straightforward, given that information is transmitted via the CAN bus from the DDE.
If you possess a device capable of interpreting the bus, you can connect at the JBE, as that is the source from which the M performance steering wheel obtains its information.
Are you entirely certain that the event occurred at the time you believe it did? A ding on the passenger side or the trunk could remain unnoticed for several days.
I would still replace the batteries, since it may drop below an acceptable level under stress, despite indicating 3.1V. A depleted key fob battery may exhibit issues such as these.
Understood, thank you.
For the sum of £23, I may just get the emulator.
I have only adults seated in the front, and if a collision occurs that is sufficient to deploy the airbag, I am certain that my vehicle would be deemed a total loss regardless.
I am now contemplating this matter.
What is the reason for the illumination of the airbag light due to a defective occupancy sensor?
Upon analysing this mentally:
The occupancy sensor only informs the ECU about the deployment of the airbag and the need to check for the seat belt clasp, correct?
If the sensor is defective, the vehicle likely perceives the seat as unoccupied.
What is the reason for the lights to stay illuminated intermittently when a load is applied and then removed?
Greetings to everybody
I have scheduled my vehicle for a MOT this Friday and have just recalled an occasional problem associated with an error number that, if activated, results in an automatic failure.
The problem is sporadic and occurs just when weight is applied to the passenger seat.
The resolution is not expedient if the occupancy sensor is defective.
I find it quite absurd to only wish that the tester refrains from occupying the passenger seat. 😂
I have seen several opinions about these bypass emulators; does anybody possess knowledge with them?
Appears to be consistent with the original material. Ultimately, any effective solution is acceptable. I used a BBQ cleaning sponge that has a coarse texture.
