Trying to get airbag light to turn off with our Fleetwood class C RV v10 681. our mechanic did the diagnostic and was told the driver seat module was bad. Module replaced, light still on but now no code on diagnostics reader. Airbag light still flashes a 1- 2 code then goes steady on. I am stumped. Please help!

May need a high end reader to find out what is going on. how up to date was the scanner that your mechanic was using?

The mechanic happened to mention it was a new $5,000.00 Snap-on reader. I do not know if that is high end or not.

My perplexing problem has been resolved! The mechanic had to reprogram his reader with a Ford program then go through the entire ordeal reprogramming, relearning, and reinstalling. Seems to work fine now. Thank you for your help!
