just a not to this!
devils fuel had tried to repair his airbag system by swapping out the ECU/pretensioners and drivers bag for replacement units from a second car,
but
the second car had a passengers airbag which he didn't fit as his own car didn't have,
yes the ecus look the same but they are programmed different
so he introduced a new fault which flashed the airbag light the same as the old fault!
Peugeot planet wouldn't connect so had to diagnose fault manually
and yes you can measure the resistance of the pretensioners with a low volt multimeter mine is 0.3V the pretensioners measured at 2.8ohms
i fitted a 1.8ohm fused resistor in the place of the missing passenger bag behind the top glove box where there is a plug for the bag
so to conclude he has a fully working system from a car that had extra bags in his car with less bags with working DIAG light and no fault lights on the dash
Be carefully guys in what you buy to repair your systems it might look the same but it might be programmed different
