Hi all i hope someone can help.
I collected my dads 55 plate 2.7 diesel today as it is in for mot at 8.30 in the morning. As i was reversing off his drive the airbag light came up on the dash. I stoped the car and restarted it and the light never came on again all the way home. I have used the car another twice and twice the light came on, but i was reversing every time, this may be a coincidence.
I have put it onto a hawkeye code reader and i have 3 diffrent faults.
B1A00....control module circuit voltage below threshold.
U0073.....control module communication bus off.
B0001......driver frontal stage 1 deployment continuous (subfault) circuit resistance above threshold.
So does anyone know what all this means, could it be a loose connection on the airbag ecu, and if so where is the ecu.
If anyone can help it would be appreciated, as i mentioned above the mot is 1st thing tomorrow.
Thanks in advance
Mark

U0073 is an odd fault code. Just appears (seemingly) at random. Can be ignored and cleared

Drivers frontal stage 1 is a loose connection in the drivers airbag or clock spring. Take the airbag out, have a fiddle with the wiring, and the light generally goes out

Thanks, but whats the clock spring?
I appreciate your help, i will have to hope it doesnt show in the morning, then have a look at it after the test.

Not to worry i found it, the clock spring is the rotary coupler.
Thanks again

Just looked and there was a recall over this, and dads car falls into the right chassis number. So there may be a call to landrover to see if its been done. If not they have themselves a job.
