jerseymick Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Hi, I bought my daughter a 2007 VW FOX about a year ago. She has recently had a baby and was looking to see how to disable the passenger dash air bag so she can put the baby seat in the front seat facing the rear. There doesn't seem to be a disable switch anywhere and the owner manual says only a VW dealer can do this. Called local dealer and they say the Fox is the only one they can't do !! Apart from removing the air bag fuse !!! which i guess will disable all air bags , anyone here got a solution ? Thanks. Mike. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volkswagen Owners Club Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I would imagine if there is no key slot etc in the car for it then it would be a dealer job. It's strange that they say it can't be done though. Have you tried another dealer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyholbury Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 You can buy resistors on ebay to disable test airbag circuits you just drain the power for and hour unplug the passenger airbag module and plug and tape the resister into the plug connections thus fooling the airbag circuit the bag is still in place.
