Occupancy Seat Fix fitted, BMW
I’ve had a lot of questions from people about where to install the bypass i made in my other video(found here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2UqGJ_LK3Y) so i’ve made this video to show you how i fitted it to an E46. Its pretty much the same for most other BMW’s and its very easy.
Simply tap the sensor you made, into the white and blue cables and tape them up. Don’t reconnect the old Blue and white wire plug as that will cause the airbag light to come back on again. tuck everything away nicely and if needed, use a couple of cable ties to make sure the wiring doesn’t get knocked by a rear seat passengers feet.
I had to use my INPA diagnostics machine to reset the airbag light as it was a permanent one. If your airbag light is an intermittent one then you will usually get away without needing to have the code cleared with diagnostics.
A little background on what this sensor is and what it does,
The occupancy sensor is a mat thats built into the seat and it tells the computer if there is a person sitting there. If there are no passengers and the car is crashed then it wont deploy the passenger airbags, only the driver ones.
This sensor is well known for going bad and this is why it triggers the airbag light. Unfortunately it costs upwards of 4-500 quid in parts and labour to have the seat mat replaced but with this mod, the bypassyou made (as per my previous video), or even bought of ebay etc will tell the computer that there is a passenger in the seat at all times and will always fire both passenger and driver airbags in the even of an accident instead of firing just the driver one.
Making up this bypass is very easy and can be done very cheaply too.
As always, I hope you find this useful and feel free to rate it, ask questions etc etc.

If the airbags didn’t work these people would not have walked out of these vehicles , both airbags deployed .
UPDATE: Okay, so now that some time has passed I have learned the BCM must be reprogrammed by the dealer to match your car. This is why the car was out of whack when I started it. The car was never driven anywhere (if it doesn’t idle right, it shouldn’t move IMO).
This is what I did after reading it online. I did not create this method but it is awesome and saves hundreds of dollars. Whoever figured this out really saved a lot of people some money.
Will fit E36 E38 E39 E46 E53 E65.
