so im having the infamous airbag warning, checked the underseat wiring and its been soldered together by previous owner so dodgey connection isnt really the problem. the warining is constantly on and never goes away at all. is there anyway to bypass the ocupancy sensor but still have the airbags active? or is there any other way to get rid of this warning?

The occupancy sensor tells the airbag the weight of the passenger & adjusts accordingly for small kids / big adults so probably no way to by-pass the sensor & keep the airbag.

I think most likely the driver or the passenger seat OCS mat itself is probably foobarred but there are loads of plugs & connectors in the airbag system...

Punto Mk2s have a problem with wiring connectors behind the glovebox. No doubt other models have common glitches. Its out with the laptop OBD cable & Fiatscan.
