I've just found this thread having decided to do something about my airbag light ( been ignoring it for a while as the wife doesn't drive ).
Just to confirm this 470 ohm resistance will tell the car the seat is permanently occupied and hence mean the airbag will be fully functional ??
After my alarm horn pcb shenanigans this should be a walk in the park......
Also my passenger seat heating isn't working either so is that likely to be a similar problem of a blown component or dry joint etc I've had a vague wiggle of all the connectors with no joy so far.....
