Airbag defective error on dash and audio aerial input.

[Killerko]

As my quest to clear pp2k of all the errors is nearing completion, I still have these 2 to tackle:
The airbag one was kinda intermittent before but now it's 100% there... accompanied with airbag defective message on display when ignition is turned on.



I have never dealt with any airbag issue before, will I have to replace the whole thing or is there any chance something else is just loose?

And one more error that I have is the audio aerial input.
When I bought the car it was missing the aerial tip in the back and traffic alerts were not working.
But I have replaced the missing tip and traffic alerts now work, yet when I delete the error it will come right back.

I think the airbag warning is the key switch by the handbrake - these get dirty, dusty, covered in fizzy drinks over the years and can affect the wiring.

Have a look at this switch, use contact cleaner and turn is on and off a few times - it might sort itself out.

If it's not this switch then it could also be the common issues of the wiring under the passenger front seat ( for the pre-tensioner, or the side airbag ) this has been documented here several times - you'll have to use the search function above as I'm off to bed

It's not the drivers airbag as these are trigger 1 and trigger 2 in PP2K.

Sorry, I can't help you regarding the aerial.

Well, I moved the passenger seat up and down.. forward and backward, turned the airbag off and on and hey, the error is gone from dash
Haven't checked with pp2k but I think this one was really simple... will check the cables properly when I get some time, I suspect it's the passenger seat.

Aerial input is the last error remaining.. but it could easily be ignored as the radio is working as expected.

I've always had the audio aerial input fault (since the first time I connected PP2000). Radio has always worked fine, so I'm ignoring it.

I also had the airbag faults, they are always related to a bad connection (a brown connector plug iirc, under the seats). It is a flimsy plug that wiggles and wobbles and does not give a very stable connection.
