If the airbag warning light appears in your VW T5, you'll need to utilize a dealership-grade diagnostic tool or schedule a visit to the dealership for them to reset it. Resetting the light in your vehicle is not a straightforward process due to Volkswagen intentionally making their airbag system difficult to reset. This deliberate design is aimed at prioritizing the safety of the occupants, as airbags are crucial safety components in the vehicle. The system is set up to ensure functionality before the warning light on the dashboard turns off. Should there be an issue with the airbag control module or any of the airbags, replacement will be necessary to deactivate the warning light.
