E36 Airbag fault 002

Recommended Posts

So here's the deal, had airbag light come on some time ago and finally found someone locally with a excellent code reading tool to pull the codes for me. Turns out it is fault 002 Drivers airbag firing circuit. I've had a bit of a look around on Google and what not as to how I would go about fixing this issue and nothing is really helping a lot. Has anyone else had this issue or more knowledgeable on this than myself able to point me in the right direction? Ever since I bought the car it's had a squeek when turning the steering wheel and I have a hunch that possibly a loose wire has been rubbing on the slipring and finally been severed as it sounds like the kind of squeek a wire would make on bare metal so maybe that's a place to start

The airbag circuit doesn't go through the slip ring, it is connected via the clock spring. This quite likely the fault but needs checking to confirm. Best done by someone familiar with the system.
