Hi folks
Ok, the airbag warning light is really starting to annoy me now! I'm sure I've sorted it with a clean of the plugs under the seats but need to reset the light.
Are these scanners worth the money? Will it allow me to do simple stuff like resetting alarms and is there a chance I'll bugger something up like losing my engine remap?
Cheers all
Regards
Gareth
