Default 964 Seat Belt & Airbag Warning

The other day my airbag warning and seat belt warning lights came on and will not go off. First suspect is a fuse. There is no fuse listed in the fuse box.
Any ideas on where to find the fuse or other areas to start troubleshooting?
Thanks.

Use the search function and search for "airbag seatbelt" and you will find enough reading for the rest of the day.

Many possible culprits, but you will need a Hammer or similar device to reset it once fixed.

Had the same issue and ended up requiring some soldering. Follow this link. http://p-car.com/diy/clockrepair/

The light will stay on until it is reset with the Hammer. I dd the clock repair and cleaned the contacts on the airbag contacts (trunk area) as per Adrians book. It fixed the problem. Good luck.

This happened to me and the warning lights were accurate. I had an airbag sensor go bad, once replaced, all was well. Take it to your mechanic and have them use the "Hammer" to diagnose.

Yesterday my Porsche dealer told me that Porsche provides new Airbag sensors by now for the 964.

I directly ordered a new a new one as I had some issues with my old one, too.
This will definitely solve the problem.
