My Vident i400 clears the srs codes on my vt.Not a lot of scan tools will read or clear all of the SRS codes. The GM Tech 2 scan tool obviously does, I'm not sure what other 'cheap' scan tools will. I have an entry level Autel unit that will read codes on my VT that my mates Vident i400 won't. I had to replace the srs module under the console, even though the light was on, the cheaper unit wouldn't read the code.
I have vf steering wheel on my vt. For 3.5 years l couldn't clear the code (code 19 capitance to high).
When setting it up, the wiring diagram didn't have a capacitor in airbag plug. So, l just had whatever plug came with the airbag for the vf.
2- 3 months ago, l was looking at oem wiring diagram, & noticed the capacitor in the diagram.
Wired the vt plug (with capacitor) into the circuit. Now, when scanning the error code was in history (not current) & it cleared. Yahoo!
2 weeks later a longer drive than usual, the airbag light came back on. This time high resistance l think?
Scanned & cleared.
2 weeks later same again long er drive than usual airbag light back on. Same code again l think.
This time wouldn't clear.
So, disconnected the abs module, scanned & cleared the code. Then reconnected the abs module.
Figured it would probably come back on the next longer drive. So re-soldered the connections to the airbag plug.
So far, no more airbag lights. Not even on the longer drives. Which was about 13 km.
