Ok so can borrow laptop so trying to get the right leads to run the free software to try and get my airbag lights off.

Firstly does it actually work ie reading faults and resetting etc inc airbags?

Are these any good...

Says modified & people have told me I would need to modify leads...so since I am new to this...are these what I need to get going without having to start modifying stuff???

And just been looking at multiecuscan...scares me...seems so technical.

Is this easy enough to use? And will the free version clear airbag codes???
 
I've had a look on the MultiEcuScan website and as far as I can tell only the paid version will allow you to reset an airbag or abs fault. Go to the 'Supported Vehicles' page and have a good read. The section for the Multipla is a long way down the page! Make a note of the connection cable types listed there and the colour of the boxes they are written in, then go back to the top of that page and read ALL the blurb.

At a quick glance on my phone it looks as though all Multiplas have Siemens airbags (as you've got access to yours you may be able to confirm this for your particlar case) connected by a 'KL3' cable.

The link to the lead set in your first post looks as though it may be a good bet, but check for the KL3 adaptor.

Keep this thread updated and maybe put a thread in the 'Guides' section when you've sorted things out. It may be useful to others in future!
 
I'm pretty sure there's a guy on the yahoo group who sells the modified leads that do airbags and abs for 20 quid incl postage.

Fiatecuscan can do abs anyway as I used it on a Ducato I had fine but maybe multiscan is different.
I have an airbag light cos I took out a seat.. I assume it will go away when I plug it back in!
