The title seems to claim this will *reset* airbag codes. Is that true? It's disturbing that so many people claim it does not, and none claim it does.

The answer to that question is Yes, technically. The way older VW/Audi cars work is that once a code is thrown (and the light comes on) it has to be manually reset in order to remove it and turn the light off (i.e., simply fixing the issue will not automatically make the light go away on its own). That written, if there is a problem detected that results in the light coming on you cannot use this device to simply 'make the light go away' without addressing the problem.

Yes it does on my Volkswagen jetta. I installed a aftermarket radio which triggered the airbag lights hooked it up got the error code and reset. Light hasn't came back on and its been about 10 months now. Well worth the money

Usually this is restricted to the paid version of whatever app you are using. I use Torque Pro and it will clear codes.

I have not had to clear a code yet. I'm lucky I guess with 2 cars and a truck. But it is very easy to hook up and use...I "assume" the clearing function will do the job.

Hello, what cars you want to delete the code on?If it is OBDII protocol, it will work on.

When the air bag goes off, it blows a non-replaceable fuse internal to the module. You need a new module.

It is true most new cars have encoded keys, these keys have a unique code matched to the car's ECU. The module required is to bypass the key code by having the module programed wit the unique code , so that it is provided as if the key was inserted in the ignition. If you don't buy the module you would not be able to use the remote start feature. Everything else would still work tho.

I used successfully to clear airbag code on a 2001 vw cabrio. So my assumption is yes it will.

I did not know so I actually keyed in several incorrect codes and the lock stopped responding. I went back several minutes later and was able to key in correct code, and it worked. So yes it does lockout.

No, this tool will not help you with your key. It only scans trouble codes and resets some (but not all) cars' oil service, airbag, and check engine lights.

Previous 2 responses are correct....on some vehicles, the key is attached to the lug wrench or the spare tire jack....if not on yours, you will have to contact the previous owner / dealer....also, most often these come in sets of 5, so you might ask them where are the other 4.....with the key on another vehicle , perhaps.....Good Luck !

No, it will not do airbag fault codes, there is a different scan tool for that.

Can't say for sure about Euro cars, but it's pretty lame with the US vehicles, I have been very disappointed with mine. It hasn't read a single airbag or ABS code yet on any Chevy. Ford, or Chrysler of various years between 2002 and 2006, and their tech support is useless. It's only real benefit is that will connect to "most" pre 1996 US vehicles for a quick and dirty code read on your older OBDI stuff. My opinion, save up for an AutoXray 6000 or 7000, a much better deal for the money if I could do it over again, that's what I would buy.

I have an 04 Cadillac Escalade with Autoride. I replaced the factory air shock with these (which are actually GM shocks relabeled "Monroe"). It is very common to have to replace the air pump do to it burning up when a bag starts to leak air do to a hole or natural degradation of the bag it's self. The pump tries to get the pressure up in the self leveling shock/bag and will continue to do so each time you are driving your vehicle. Until it finally burns the pump up from being over worked. The pumps normal time of operation is only 10-30 seconds when you first start your vehicle, so when it runs for minutes or even hours it burns up quick...

Neighbor ... I hope that you are still reading. The other guys mean well, but are off the mark. This kit is the leveling system for use with the air bag system which is sold separately. If you buy this kit and nothing else .... the answer to your question is zero. The best thing for you to do is contact AirLift, tell the rep about your vehicle and what your goal is. He'll tell you what to buy. The rep is not a salesman. Get the list of parts and shop for the best price. That's almost always Amazon. No .... I don't own any Amazon stock or work for Amazon. I'm just a fat, little, 74yo man who has been working on his own cars and trucks forever. If you decide to strike out on your own you'll be spending more money than needed and maybe endangering the lives of you and your loved ones. thanks, your neighbor, ron :-)

It must be programmed by someone with the correct equipment. I installed it then drove over to tire kingdom and they used their hand-held device to update the system. There are You-Tube videos that show you how they do it. The guy didnt even charge me. I tipped him for his trouble.

It (by itself) does not stop someone from using a spare. But where are they getting the spare?? Are they carrying one around to match your car? The club makes it near impossible to drive away with your car (or in my case a pop up camper.) You could use a keyed lug to make it more difficult if it is easy for them to provide a spare.

The scanner will not reset codes it will only read codes. To reset codes you can go to your local auto parts store and most of them can clear your codes for free.
