On my 2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette van
Dear MW  My
airbag light is on. I had the computer scanned and came
back with
code B0065. They did not know what it meant and said to go to the
dealer. Can you help? Thanks, Bill







MW:
Yes, i can help. That code is for the dr. Seatbelt pretensioner. The Airbag
computer(SDM) has seen an open in the circuit. A common problem for this
code is that the connector under the rear of the dr. Seat gets a slight
film/corrosion on the terminals. Most of the time all you have to do is the
disconnect the connector, lightly scratch/clean the terminals, then re-connect.
Do this after you remove the SIR fuses to disable system. The connector is
under the rear of the dr. Seat and is a 2-wire connector - yellow

question = My Olds Service Engine Soon light came on 2 days ago.
Everything seams fine. How do I code it and how do I reset the light? Thanks
for your time.





JK:
Hello and welcome.
Anytime the check engine light is on, the computer is seeing a problem in
one of the vehicles systems. A scanner is required to get the codes, to start
diagnosis. Some of the large national parts store chains will do this for free.
Once the code(s) are retrieved, diagnosis can begin.
