Hi I have just changed airbags in my Fiat 500 which was imported from Japan. I replaced with brand new items and had the crash data removed from my old airbag module but I am still having a problem. But the strangest thing is it is not showing Error using multiecuscan the only thing I can see causing a problem is the Pretensioner cut-in counter is showing 1 when I belive it should be showing 0 so i guessing this the problem but how do I resolve this.

Any help would be great thanks in advance..


Regards Dan

If your car airbag system has the following symptoms :

If your airbags deployed

If your airbag light is flashing ?

If your diagnostic tool is reading CRASH DATA STORED , ECU ERROR or DTC 65535 in the airbag computer ?

Try this:

Discharged battery and/or by jump starting attempts
Whilst driving normally unnoticed voltage peaks into the on-board power supply can cause this error Even if you have not had a crash and the light is on, then this can be a internal module error Then you may not need to spend lots of money on a new module. Even if you buy a new module you will have pay for the module and recoding.

Diagnostic Tools WILL NOT Clear these codes.
Air bags and air bag modules are designed to only work once.
The air bags need to be replaced with un-deployed air bags but the blown air bag module can now be repaired.

Dealerships can clear the fault or error codes from your computer module, but not the crash codes. This can only be cleared by replacing the unit with a new one.
We are now able to repair and reprogram your blown airbag computer module. The SRS, derm, sensor, or brain as it is sometimes called.
We clear both the fault and crash codes.


Your module will be sent back as if you had bought a new one. And will work in exactly the same way as the original one. You will not have to recode the module to the vehicle.

Please make sure it is your module that is at error, and that all airbags and tensioners and all related components have been replaced.
