Omega Airbag ECU`s wanted
« on: 08 October 2011, 10:19:35 »
Hi,

I`m currently playing around with resetting the crash data on various models of Airbag ECU`s and was wondering if anyone out there in Ooferland has any spare ECU`s that they would care to let me have a play with.

Not worried if they are from cars where the airbags have been deployed, as I`m looking to reset these, and I`m more than happy to return these once finished with in a fully reset condition

Can anyone help at all ?

 :)

In fact, not just restricted to Omega`s - I`m after as many different makes and models of airbag ecu`s as I can lay my hands on, as I am starting my technical database from absolutely nothing

no, its a fault, though could still be sensor/wiring...

Not really (but thanks for the thoughts) - Its the memory function inside the ECU that I am playing with - when the airbags are deployed, the ECU "remembers" this and prevents it from being used again, meaning that you have to buy a new one after an accident. We have managed to reset the crash data inside, so that they can now be refitted again. I`m after as many different types as I can get so that I can publish some pictures and write some technical documents for this.

Interesting.

When I got my car the airbag light was on.

"a mate" plugged his "My Naff Code Reader" in hoping to reset the light and was gobsmacked to see the message

Fatal Airbag ECU fault - (or something like that), but was then given the option to reset it. The reset worked thankfully.

Cant find the ECU - its not where I thought it should be - house move  ::)

Will have a deeper look asap.

Thanks - Rob

Indeed interesting - wasn`t aware that they could be reset with "My Naff Code Reader" or Tech2 even ?

Can`t say I have tried with either, but other manufacturers and Marques certainly struggle to be reset using their own diagnostic equipment - hence why I have started to get involved with this.

Could such a message be caused by faulty wiring / sensor ?

It would explain why it could be reset with "My Naff Code Reader" ?
