Re: E36 Airbag Light On

6'7" 340-pound body guards will also cause this problem. It took me awhile 
to figure that one out. It's just too much weight for the sensor.

I'm still looking for a cheap computer interface for the OBD-II system 
without having to build one. Has anyone heard of anything, or should I just 
go Snap-On or with the Baum Tools unit?
