Airbags

[Nick1981-1]

Hi All, I have replaced the seats in the 206cc with much better condition black and red leather seats I got from ebay. They are exactly the same apart from they don't have side airbags in them. I disconnected the airbag wiring under the seat expecting to have to fit resistors but the airbag light has not come on. The airbag light lights up as normal on ignition check and goes out. I have had it on a snap on code reader and the airbag module is functioning normal with no codes. I would have thought the airbag light would have come on with me removing the seat airbags. My mechanic has said just to tape them up and put them under the carpet. I am just curious as to know why it didn't trigger the airbag light. Its a 2001 2.0 petrol model.

Thanks
Guys

Maybe they never worked and were mapped out of the bsi config ...
