David - when you found the voltage generator to be the problem, did that show up on the code reader? The reason I ask is that the only code showing up is for the airbag control module which is the unit behind the climate control buttons AFAIK. There are also codes for what is called an airbag resistor and one for the voltage supply. I'm wondering if one of the other codes would indicate the voltage generator?

Thaks for the reply.
