SRS Airbag Service required URGENT fault codes for volvo v 70 2005

Question

Hi I have received the fault codes 0079 010E and 007C on my volvo v70 2005. I was told by the non volvo garage it's the seat belt tensioner in the back seat and they had tried to get to it but its buried in the back seat. They said i had to remove all the upholstry to get to it. They tried to reset it but it wouldnt reset. I cañot get an MOT until its sorted so i am in a mess with it and could really appreciate some advice On the dash it says "warning SRS airbag service urgent" can you help with any advice I am rather confused as the fault code on the list suggests other things so I don't know where to start with it. The car is relatively new to me, bought late last year and its my first experience with volvo. Many Thanks

Answer 1

SRS 0079 Center seat belt tensioner

SRS 010E SRS control module

SRS 007C Center rear seat belt tensioner

010E is more of a informitive code this is the SRS module that is reporting the situation. and displays the SRS light. These are permanent fault codes, they cannot be erased until it requirement are met. The best start is with the center seat belt tensioner, and yes uphostery does have to be removed.
