Re: Trick The Computer

If I remember correctly I think you can clear the codes with the proper scan tool. Playing with airbags is risky business so be careful.

Re: Trick The Computer

Most cars are permanently programmed. Erasing it constitutes fraud and is punishable the same way as rolling back and odometer... at least here in the states.

There is probably a way to do it, but don't expect it to be easy or legal

Re: Trick The Computer

When I was in school they did go over how to reset the system (in Pennsylvania). If done by an approved shop I think it is ok. I have never done it though. I would recomend not messing with the system at all though. Too many horror stories of bags going off at the wrong time.
