Hi,

I have 2006 plate Grande Punto Sporting 1.9 MJet.

My Airbag light has come on so I took it to a local garage ( not a dealer )

He previously cleared an airbag fault 9 months ago saying it was a CAN Bus error ( if memory serves me )

He attached it to his dianostic equipment and could not reset this error code which was 0117 9 , f, 81,17.

I have looked for this code on the service manual I downloaded, searched the fiat forum, searched the internet but I cannot find what the fault is.


If not does anybody have any instructions / notes I can pas on to my garage so he can clear the error from my car or is it a visit to local fiat dealer for this one.

I think the diagnostic equipment was branded Snap On if that helps.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have noted that there was a known fault with the airbag software in the sticky at the top of the forum. What faults does this correct / fix ?

update

Took Car to FIAT dealer an the problem was solved immediately.

Was found to be a broken wire to RH side impact sensor.

It was soldered together, error cleared, air bag light went out.

All OK
