Galaxy Active hood fault and airbag light

Sounds familiar. I had a similar issue with my old BMW 3 Series. Same error message, airbag light, the whole shebang. In my case, it was the acceleration sensor that was causing the problem.

Interesting! Where is that acceleration sensor located, and is it difficult to replace? Also, were your hood actuators firing too? I'm trying to figure out if it's a sensor or a hood latch problem.

Yeah, the actuators were firing on mine as well. I wouldn't mess with it too much yourself. It's all tied into the crash detection system. I'd recommend taking it to a workshop and getting it checked out properly. Much safer that way.

Thanks for the tip! I took it to the shop, and you were spot on – it was the acceleration sensor. They replaced it, and the error is gone, and the airbag light is off. Cost me 315€, but at least it's fixed. Really appreciate the help!
