If the front seat pretensioners have fired and the seats moved to another car does this make the Airbag light stay on until the pretensioners have been replaced,
or is this most likely the normal dodgy connection problem ?

I means the pretensioners are scrap, can you not fit the ones from the original seats to the replacement ones?

Good idea if i had thought of that before flogging them

Any other unforeseen grief in doing this seat swap .

.
well they are already in and mostly working except for the heated bit as not got switches yet

.

Also the car has the wiring for the Seat belt warning can I just get a suitable pretensioner and plug it in

think they are LRP ? Ash grey/Light smokestone

If the pre-tensioner has fired the corrugated plastic "sleeve" will be compressed.
