Morning all,
so I’ve had a mare this week. My reverse camera stopped working on my android unit. I replaced the camera and it still didn’t work so I thought it must be the cable.
as I pulled my stereo out the canbus decoder stayed in the dash (somewhere) never to be found - I have took all panels off and still can’t find the thing. Obviously stereo wouldn’t work now either as canbus shutting it down. In the end I saw a video on YouTube about bridging the yellow and red connector on the block whichgoes into thedecoder and alas the stereo works albeit without steering controls etc and I have to remember to turn it off as it doesn’t go off with ignition. I am planning to look for the decoder again but need to get a flexible camera.
after all this I then notice the airbag light coming on. Tried clearing with opcom but it won’t clear - it’s present /intermittent. At first I thought it was the passenger seat so tried to get access with the block but struggled to separate it. Then I thought hang on I think it’s the air bag above the glove box. Maybe pushing my stereo back and putting the glove box in I’ve chafed a wire or something causing the resistance either that or the jumper I’ve done on the stereo is having an effect.
can I have some advice on where it is and what to check for please guys. I don’t have a multimeter or anythingto checkvolages so can’t provide that but have put screens below.
Also even though there’s resistance, the air bagshould still deploy in an accident?
thanks
