The important thing, Al, is that you are taking the comments as they are meant to be... Help and advice

You will be hard pushed to find a better forum and more knowledgeable bunch of people than here.

We are only interested in trying to resolve the issue properly for you

Where are you based?

Appreciate that - much obliged - suppose I started off with a bit of a controversial issue and could have easily given it a bit more thought before posting it. Lesson learnt.
I am based just off M1 junc 25 between Derby and Nottingham,
Cheers mate!

The Master, Marks DTM Calibration is your closest member with a Tech 2 (I think!) and really knows his stuff. For a small fee he can put a proper Tech 2 on and understand what it's saying. I reckon he'll switch the light off, or point you to where the problem is very quickly

Good luck with the belt change

Hold on - I have an idea.

You say that your dosn't have a pass airbag fitted. This was a NC option which gave you an additional glovebox, so the car would then only have a single airbag - the drivers one.

You also say that you have swapped the airbag ECU. However, unless the replacement one was also from a car with only the drivers airbag then it would be looking for but not finding the pass airbag and bring the light on.

From MY98 onwards, Omegas have 4 airbags as standard (side airbags as well as the driver/pass). But if you wanted the additional glove box then you only got the drivers one.

So, could that be part of the problem?

Also, resetting the airbag light sometimes seems to work with some "My Naff Code Reader"s and not others. TECH2 always seems to reset the system completely though.

My suggestion is a visit to a TECH2 owner with your old ecu as well and then see what happens.

If the light is on, the SRS system is disabled.  Regardless of any faults or not.

If the light immediately comes on after resetting, the ecu is detecting a fault still.

Sounds like this does need a better diagnostic than your friend can supply (with no disrespect meant to him).  Given your location, contact Marks DTM Calibration - I will personally vouch for him any day of the week, I'm sure virtually everyone on this site would as well
