Passenger Seat Airbag Warning

Hello all,

Mentioned on here before that my 2012 A207 has had some issues with the passenger seat. Well, the airbag system is still causing issues. If one of the kids knocks the rear seat with their feet while getting in or out (almost inevitable), sometimes the warning comes on the next time the car starts. I can reset it and the warning goes away, but it's a nuisance and happens more regularly as the kids' legs get longer (what do you mean, "this is not a car for rear seat use")...

I am very versed in taking apart the rest of the seat, but have respect for the airbag system, so haven't looked into it. Any pointers?

Thank you

Make sure to disconnect the battery BEFORE you touch any airbag components. The plug for the weight sensor on the seats might be loose. Check that first.
