I have an SRS fault, but no codes and I can’t find any modules which are not working. The previous owner fitted a passenger seat emulator, so I wonder if they didn’t erase the fault off the system?
Another thing - I don’t get any seatbelt warnings on the instrument cluster - should I?
Is the only way to clear this fault to use Star?
Thanks
This comes up on start, ‘1 malfunction’ when I turn the engine off.

I bought Xentry and it says that there are no airbag fault codes, either current or stored. This is pretty frustrating for two reasons - I just spent a lot of money on Xentry and I still have the same warning light.
It seems to me that the passenger seat emulator is the most likely cause of the issue. I think it’s one where they reused the plug from the seat sensor. Should I wire the seat sensor back in?

Yes, in this case disconnect emulator and connect original plug back and check again.

should have bought BenzNinja and it would have been solved already...
Okay, I’m getting somewhere with this - thanks to the Xentry…which I’ve just about learnt to use.
I managed to get the error codes to show again and my SRS problem is code 9103 - Driver ignition circuit containing component R 12/3 (drivers squib airbag) resistance to high.
As I understand this is either a fault with the airbag itself or the wiring being damaged at the plug due to the movement of the adjustable steering wheel and the factory loom being too short. I did find that the previous owner had looped two yellow wires under the steering column - I reattached them - they appeared to be the airbag wires?
I have a spare airbag, but I’m a bit scared of it. Am I safe to measure the resistance at R12/3 and then compare it to the one on the car? I think that it should be 3 ohm.
If that checks out then I will test each wire down the column for continuity.
