Reset Airbag Malfunction Light

Model: Audi A4 B6 - Years 2000-2004
Part: Warning light – error code

If the airbag malfunction light remains on in the instrument cluster, perform a code reading with a diagnostic tool to investigate the nature of the fault (you can also use a generic diagnostic tool, not necessarily the official one from the manufacturer); once you select the make and model, enter the restraint system module and read the error codes: in this case, it refers to the driver's airbag, but it is a sporadic fault, so it is sufficient to clear the fault codes to reset the light.
