Airbag and Seat Occupancy Failure Cancellation BMW
TO VIEW THE BMW SEAT OCCUPANCY SENSOR EMULATOR CLICK HERE
Warning: You cannot carry babies in car seats in the front passenger seat because in the event of an accident the airbag will always deploy, and cannot be deactivated. This is a temporary solution; we always recommend replacing defective components with those approved by the vehicle manufacturer.
Instructions:
- Remove the key from the ignition.
- Locate the seat occupancy sensor connector and disconnect it. (Under the front passenger seat, at the rear.)
- Connect our emulator.
- Start the car.
In a few cases, the airbag fault remains stored in the control unit and needs to be cleared with a diagnostic tool (this usually happens if you have driven for a long time with the fault light on).

BYPASS THE BMW SEAT OCCUPANCY SENSOR FAULT
Instructions to bypass the passenger seat belt fault:
- Remove the key from the ignition.
- Locate the yellow connector (under the front passenger seat). The shape of the connector may vary depending on the vehicle's year, but the color is always yellow.
- Find the red and black wires in the connector; they are always next to each other.
- Using a flat-head screwdriver, disconnect the original red wire and connect the red pin of the emulator.
- Using a flat-head screwdriver, disconnect the original black wire and connect the black pin of the emulator.
- Leave the original wires disconnected.
- Start the car.
