ABS/ESP/AirBag Light after removing seat.

[gearhead1186]

I went to the track last weekend and took out my rear and front passenger seat. I unplugged the 3 plugs that were under the front passenger seat.

Airbag light was obviously on when I had the seat out. Now, after putting the seat back in and plugging everything back, the ABS, ESP and AirBag light stay lit.. any ideas?

an update... airbag light comes on right when the car is started... after a couple min of driving the ESP and ABS light join the party..

i heard i need a VAG to reset the airbag light...

I just removed my steering wheel and after reinstalling have this same problem....airbag light on immediately and abs/tc lights on after I start driving. I'm going to try to reset with vag-com.....but if that doesn't work, any ideas?

it will reset just fine with VAGCOM. anytime an ABS sensor gets unplugged, even for a second, it must be cleared with VAGCOM.

Ok, just cleared the codes with vag-com. The airbag goes away, but as soon as I start driving, the ABS/ESP lights come back. The code I get is 00778 - Steering Angle Sensor (G85) 37-00 - Faulty

you probably need to re-calibrate your Steering Angle Sensor:

sorry for raising the dead, but if you were to disconnect the battery first, and only reconnect it after everything has been reinstalled, will it still need to be reset?
