Had the sound system upgraded (speakers, amps, sub-base) by a professionals. When I got the car back, it started throwing airbag codes:-
SDM B0019 - passenger airbag squib circuit stage 1 voltage performance - not present
SDM B0020 - passenger airbag squib circuit stage 2 voltage performance - present
The sound system guys claim that nothing they did caused this(!!?!)
The codes only occur on startup. Once the car is running, the codes can be reset and don't re-appear until the car is stopped and restarted.
Local holden dealer was useless. Charged me $60 to reset the codes. Then wanted to book the car in again to further fault find with no indication of how much it might cost. Couldn't give me a gaurantee that they could fix it. Did not give me much confidence they were worth their exorbitant hourly rate.
These codes relate to the resistance of the circuit, and are sometimes thrown due to poor/corroded plug connections.
The fact that these codes are only thrown on startup suggests something else. Perhaps turn-on inrush for the new sound system, causing interference?
Not real keen to poke around with this stuff, but might have to if the local dealer can't be relied upon.
Anybody had similar problems/codes? Anyone know of a good airbag tech in NSW?
