1995 960 Intermittent SRS + other problems

Post by techedbob »

My car has decided to have a mind of it's own. The other day the SRS light went on, the ac,clock and interior lights all went off. I pulled over and and checked the fuse and it was fine. I started the car and the light went off. Over the next several trips the SRS light stayed off and then it started all over again. I have run the codes (Slot B5) it gives a 1-1-1. It seems to be an intermittent problem, but annoying. I just replaced the PNP switch and cleared the codes for that, but before I replaced the PNP I tried several remedies from moving the gear shifter back and forth and cycling the key 5 or 6 times to clear the flashing arrow until that did not work anymore. Does anyone have any ideas where I can start to try to solve this problem. :?

It must be a cluster problem. The SRS system will not turn off the warning light if it detects a problem without you reading the codes and then erasing them after the fault is repaired.

Also a charging system fault could do the same thing w/o there being a code in SRS system.
