How to Reset the Airbag Light on a Volkswagen Polo
Model: Volkswagen Polo
Polo 5, Polo V, MK 5, MK V, 6R
- Years 2009-2017
If you have performed electrical work on your Volkswagen Polo - for example, replacing the radio - and turned on the ignition before reconnecting the airbag connector, it is likely that the airbag light remains on unnecessarily. This annoying issue can be resolved in two ways: either connect the cable to the OBD port located near the footwell, connect the corresponding USB to a laptop, and use the Volkswagen VDCS program, or purchase a diagnostic device available on Amazon for about £90, which works much more simply and immediately, as demonstrated by our YouTuber. Select your car's make, choose whether to perform an automatic or manual scan, then search for the device you want to scan - in this case, the airbag - where an error was found. Click OK and the error will be cleared.

Frequently Asked QuestionsHow to Reset the Tyre Pressure Light on the Opel Grandland X
While driving, if you notice the tyre pressure warning light coming on, first check the actual inflation pressure of the tyres and, if necessary, restore the pressures recommended by the manufacturer. After restoring the correct pressures, you need to reset the warning light that has illuminated on the instrument cluster. To do this, locate the reset button on the lower central console. Press this button and hold it down for at least 3 seconds, after which the low pressure indication will turn off. by ScegliAuto More videos
