The same is true of event data stored due to seat belt pyrotechnic pre-tensioners being activated. As an example, the Mk2 Renault Clio was prone to detonating the side/seat airbags if the car was bumped up a kerb stone at the side of the road while parking, storing a ‘Crash Event’ and giving the Permanent Fault code of “Airbag Computer Permanent Fault – Replace computer” which could not be reset and would require a new airbag module to be fitted.
