    Trouble resetting Z4 E85 airbag with INPA

    INPA seems to be working OK and I can read fault codes, see engine value, PDC, etc. But I can't clear my airbag light. When I try to access the airbag module I get: requested control unit: ACSM60/V3.00, ACSM85/V3.00, ACSM2/V1.00 SIM85 not found

    My airbag info:

    Control unit : Airbag ECU or Safety Info Module
    ECU : D_SIM
    JobStatus : OKAY
    BMW part number : 6965147
    Hardware number : 09
    Software number : _?_
    Supplier : Autoliv
    Supplier-No : 58
    Coding index : 4
    Diagnostic index : 1376
    Bus index : _?_
    Date of manufacture Week/Year : _?_/1010

    My B800 code reader says I have a swinging voltage error but it can't clear it. I removed the seats but the ignition wasn't on at the time. I also disconnected the battery when I fitted a multifunction steering wheel.

    What can I do? Thanks for your help.

    Solved it :-) You don't reset the airbag on a Z4, far too obvious. You go into the safety module and in my case reset the codes in the "satellite B pillar" (likely the connection to the seat). We live and we learn.
