We have a Peugeot Partner van and recently the drivers airbag warning light came on. We took it into our local garage where he checked for loose fitments, could not find any, so ran diagnostics and it reported a problem with the ignitor unit. Garage owner double checked with his friend who runs car electrics firm and he advised him to change it. So he got in new airbag ignitor, stripped it down and replaced it. Warning light still on. Garage owner's contact at car electrics firm is now away for several days. Anyone got any ideas? Maybe alarm just needs resetting in some way?

    its quite likely a squib problem on the steering wheel
    unless i was 100% sure i wouldnt have forked out for a new igniter
    had a fiat in this week both airbag lights on
    this was due to a low battery start condition
    new battery /clear codes
    job done

    Is there anywhere by the way to look up the price of Peugeot parts on line?. The Peugeot official website which appears to be able to do that, in fact just redirects to a generic servicing option.

    There are some accessories we would like but would like to price them first. Cannot find anywhere to do that on line for peugeots, short of requesting a specific quote against a vin number and being phoned back. Just want to peruse a list at present?

    Have you moved the seat about and re-set it.

    Air bag light comes on when the seat is sometimes not sighted properly or something is obstructing it.
