Gray993C4

Hi,

I recently removed the clock on my 1995 993 C4, and unplugged the airbag warning light in the clock while the car had power. Now it seems I have activated my airbag warning light. Can somebody recommend a tool to clear the light? I am pretty sure my car is an OBD1, but with a rectangular plug. If anyone in SF has the necessary tool, I would be very grateful to use it for a few minutes!

Thank you!

you need to find somebody with a Bosch hammer, a PST 2, or a PIWIS, Porsche specific diagnostic tester.

Some say the durametric cable will do the job, but I was unable to have the Durametrics communicate with the airbag module.

Any shop with one of the afformentioned tools, would probably charge a nominal fee to turn off the light.

My Scantool interface cleared the airbag light on my early '95. Nowadays you can get the adapter cable here:

Cant guarantee it'll work on late '95 but it might!

Apparently, Porsche made Airbag control module updates, not in coordination with the model changeover. I found Durametric works but sometimes requires the loading of an earlier or later model when running the program to access the airbag controller.

I'm in Chicago and can do it w/ the Bergvill cable if you happen to be close.
