must be replaced. Even after small accident Airbag sensor will write in internal memory special

error message "crash data stored" or “computer fault” and after you need to exchange very

expensive sensor to new one.



What is best for airbag reset?

You are advice the new Carprog airbag reset tool, not the old one

New airbag reset tool vs old airbag reset tool

+/- supported units ZAE, MRSZ, MRSZ3, MRSZ4 (not all)

+ supported units BAE, ZAE, ZAE2, MRSZ, MRSZ2, MRSZ3, MRSZ4

Using these pictures you can erase airbag “on the table” – you must connect GND, +12V,

and Diagnostic line between airbag sensor and BMW Airbag Eraser, connect power supply to GND and +12V and use Eraser like in the car. After erasing don’t connect power supply again – BMW airbag sensor is very sensitive and can write “controller malfunction” error after connection on the table without car.
