@Maku:
I bought this vag401 because every time my seat moves it causes airbag light go off on my 2003 VW Jetta Wagon TDI.
This turns off the airbag light once triggered.
@Robert:
This vag401 scanner cleared the airbag codes on 2013 passat. Use the diagnostic, option 15 and wait, it will say reading codes for a long time, be patient, once codes finally show up, push right arrow and select erase codes.
@Kerrie:
My daughter bought an inexpensive VW rabbit. The prior owner attempted to fix an airbag light and after throwing a bunch of parts at it the light was still on. I bought this v401 xtool to diagnose the issue. I plugged it in and figured out the menus after a little bit of fiddling. After clearing the codes I find out that was all prior owner needed to do to make the light go away! Great luck for both my daughter and myself!
I now have the right tool to diagnose any other issues.
@Luder:
Purchased the XTOOL V401 to reset the airbag light on my 2013 golf TDI. The XTOOL arrived in English with instructions. I was able to reset my airbag light within 5 minutes of opening the XTOOL. It was also able to read trouble codes from my AC system, a feature I wasn’t even aware existed! This tool is worth every penny for the DIYer.
Hope it helps!
