Regardless if its airbag or not I assume as he said it about mine being non airbag.He said ford will need to re-set it. I dont know how true this is.

But I swapped my seats from ones with airbags to ones without. When I did this it threw an airbag fault as it was missing two airbags. So to combat this fault you need to go buy a 2.2 ohm 1watt resistor from jaycar and either do a bodge and jam it into the two inner pins of the airbag plug or solder them into the wires that lead to those two inner pins. This tricks the computer into thinking it has airbags in the seats and stops the code. This worked on my 2011 fg falcon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy069 New Member 3 Member For: 5y 7m 26d Posted 08/04/19 05:00 PM Share Posted 08/04/19 05:00 PM Hey guys, got the same problem in my BF2.5. Swapped the seats from cloth NON airbag type to leather WITH airbags. Ever since had code 23 flash up. Tonight I took the resistor plugs from my other BF2 and disconnected the seats from the loom and plugged in the dummy yellow resistor plugs and the light went out. However I'm sure this has now disabled the side seat airbags. What's the proper way to fix this so the seat airbags deploy in case of an accident? I do remember switching on th ignition foolishly before plugging in the connectors and wondered if just an SRS reset would fix the problem? Is there a way to reset the system in a BF without an SRS reset tool like the EF by shorting out say pin 4 in the diagnostic plug? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
