Can someone in the Sacramento area help a BMW Brother out?

Like a bonehead, I was fixing the front window and disconnected the air bag before disconnecting the battery. Now the airbag light is on.

If someone has the ability to reset, we can meet for a beer :beerchug: or something : popcorn: and do a quick reset.

Much appreciated! :thumbup:

I hope you find someone local.

If not, this information, culled by typing /srs F3 in the bestlinks, may be useful:

Thanks

Bluebee,
Thanks for the information. I saw a couple of the postings and may have to break down and buy one. I already have a basic code reader and was hoping to avoid buying another tool that I hope will never use again (i.e. not making the same mistake again)

I just picked up this car to fix the problems and resell it. It would be nice to keep the tool investment to a minimum.

Here's to avoiding breaking anything else.
