Does your car not have airbag connectors under the passenger seat? That's the usual cause for an illuminated airbag light on the 156 147 and GT. I created a 'fix' thread in the 156/147/GT lounge, its sticky'd in the 'how to' thread if that's of any use...

Wish mine was as easy as that!!

The dash cover on my daily (406 v6 coupe) has peeled away from the metal backing, this caused a fail!!
I know have more of the dash removed from the car than is in place whilst I wait for my eBay purchase to arrive

You were very lucky and the Tester lazy. He should have checked to see that the light operated for a second or two when ignition switched on....You were very lucky!....Er, where is he?:lol:

Well I take it there for a good reason. The guy is older and possibly more sympathetic to 'classics'.
BUT he would not pass anything dangerous that's for sure..

This is a grey area abs must come on and go off (if fitted) but some testers interpret the airbag rules as no light no problem also the engine management light is " aparently" exempt

mine has passed twice with airbag light on. Mind you the guy who does the MOT describes my car as the one with the barely legal exhaust. Guess what advisory I get every year?
