Any ideas what I have to do to have a airbag re set on my daughters Daewoo Matiz please?
since having a check at a garage on why a specific fuse keeps blowing, her airbag light is permantly on, it was ok before. When she phoned up the garage, they said it was due to fuse blowing, although they didn't find a fault. This I think was crap. they then said they couldn't re set it, it needs to go to a garage that can do it.

The dealership has to do this. sorry

you have to go to a big well recognized garage or the major dealer for that mate

they will have to reset via the ecu onboard computer

i had a alike prob with my engine management light, nothing wrong had to reset it, the garage had to get a call out man with a van and these special tools/machine which I had to pay for just to reset it. cost me £40. apparantly they don't keep this equipment at garrages, a mobile van goes round and does it and charges good luck.

you've got to go through a garage dude, they're so dangerous

So let me get this straight. They checked your car, it blowed a fuse. The replaced the fuse and did not find a because for it blowing? That in itself should have let you know to take it someplace else. I could recommend exactly that, take it to somebody who knows what they're doing.
And be sure they can reset your air bag light while there at it.
I hate when idiots pretend to be mechanics.

Fuses don't blow for no reason this needs to be fixed .You will have to take it to an auto expert to have your ECU codes checked don't try this yourself this may be dangerous.It is probably that the fuse problem is influencing your air bag light.Regards Mick

try disconnecting the negative battery terminal for 10mins, that should reset the ECU, it may reset the airbag aswell

depends how old the car is, but take it back to the dealership, if it under three years, have them fix it, and do not leave till they do.

if the garage U took it to could find a fault, then take to to another one, the has lots of knowledge about a daewoo's, the dealership is best.

if the light is on it may mean that there's a fault in the circuit, meaning the airbags won't deploy when needed, or deploy when they are not needed, causing an accident

take it to the dealership for re set

Scrap the fecker and purchase her a decent, safe motor. She hits a dog with that part of junk, she's dead.
