So i purchased a salvage tdi a couple years ago. It had no airbag light on for the first few months.
After i installed a stereo it came on for some reason and hasnt turned back off.
The code is for the seatbelt igniter drivers side.
I tried cleaning the contacts but no luck. I looks like it may have been replaced at one point but its weird that the code didn't show up a few months.
So i am going to replace the assembly.
My question is does it have to be the exact part number that matches my vin?
There a lots of these for sale and it seems like any one of them would work but sometimes the part number is off or just missing the last 2 letters or something.
1J4857705THCP is the part. some of them i find are 1J4857705T or 1J4857705 for example.
