I appreciate you making this detailed video! It was instrumental in fixing this problem. Thanks for sharing your time!
Saved me $2700 to replace the OC2 sensor at mini! Thank you SO MUCH

Merci bien expliquait bonne vidéo encore bravo
Great video - good details, thank you
Lol I am going through this identical issue... Mini code 93C3... Mini is currently helping me file a complaint with the NHTSH or whatever it’s spelt.
I was seeing all these bypass modules but am super happy I found an R56 video showing how simple! Thanks! Hopefully they recall these because o have owned vehicles with 380k miles and NEVER had an airbag issue EVER!!! Thanks again!

@@billnyee make sure to get an OBD reader or onboard computer system compatible with airbag programming etc
Two major deadly issues with this: 1) You will always have to ensure no one as small as the weight of a child who could be seriously injured or killed by an airbag sits in the front passenger seat and 2) if even an appropriate weight person forgets their seatbelt and the airbag deploys due to the seatbelt bypass, that person could die from the impact of the airbag propelling them around without the carefully measured manufactured seatbelt in use! Yes impact of a collision could kill regardless but you are looking at a potential vehicular homicide and/or wrongful death lawsuit when that bypass component is found!
I went to the junkyard and cut out a seatbelt buckle, then attached a red strap to it. I plug it in the passenger receptacle when no one is sitting there. When I don’t use it, I put the buckle end in the glove box and let the strap hang out.
Excellent video!
Nice job my friend: Big help 👍🏻
Bought bypass from eBay, easy install, great video - but same result as before. Clear codes, same result. Someone on mini forum is saying I need to recode the airbag module?
If you have little hands and some patience, there's no reason to remove the seat. Took me maybe 20 minutes to replace the sensor.
absolutely, recall for sure!
graccias . me hayudo mucho tu video
Hi, any luck or progress with getting Mini to do an official recall on this? My 2011 Mini Cooper has this error too and, like you, I don't think bypassing the error is the right solution either. Thank you.
My dealer quoted the cost of a new sensor pad for the passenger seat in my 2011 Cooper S at.... Are you sitting down?.....$2,300 US dollars!
I also had the same problem with the seatbelt bypass not working, i ended up just hooking 2 150 ohm resistors together and that took care of the light.
Can you share a link where you purchased it?
Hello, I am struggling with the same problem, what is the name of the device you used to turn off the sensor? And the magnet that you lowered was inside the belt box? or did you buy it too
I bought on eBay and After installed nothing change for me on r56 jcw. Easy to install for sure but... Don't know why not working. Will try tomorrow to delete error codes with a launch and 🤞🏻
Did you disconnect the battery? It's not mentioned in the video... I saw some other videos where they say to remove the power first.
Will replacing "only" the passenger seat occupant module work. I don't think I have an issue with the seat belt
Where can I order the bypass items ?
There was an extended warranty of 10 years on these but the warranty is out now.
whats inside the bypass module. just a resistor or something else ?
What if it’s on all the time with no passenger period?
do they sell a kit . and where can I get one ?
We have the same issues and no recall
Where can I purchase the parts for the airbag and the seatbelt switch?
good morning my friend My car at this moment has this error, it is 2009 and I changed the seats for 2010 leather ones, the scanner error is a companion sensor, my mechanic tells me that the sensor of the new seats is not compatible with the sensor of the car and for that reason it does not detect it, I would like some guide to be able to make the fix to erase the error, thank you very much
is it also work for the driver side
the driver side does not have this, this is only for passenger seat. drive side airbag is inside the steering wheel and always on.
Hello, where Can I buy all Switch you used please?
Just installed in a R56 2010 and neither lights extinguished. Did you have to clear faults through a code reader? I unhooked battery which ideally should reset ecu and clear faults. I haven’t tried the magnetic seatbelt sensor either though.
Como pido esa pieza
What is the i&tem part number on ebay for seat belt warning
Donde puedo comprar ese bypass?
Link to the part?

Is diagnostics tool necessary?
Where can i buy that bypass?
r55 here. bought a set off ebay, installed ok led is on solid so good, cleared SRS codes and... didn’t do jack. both errors back. tried over and over. what gives. about to price out new seat occupancy mat or should I take the thing back to bmw?
Did not work on my 2008 R55
I have that issue on mine.
El mío no funcionó 🥺
I have some questions. Do you have an email address so I could ask you directly?
Do you know guys any device that works for 2014 R55? appreciate your comments.
Yaaa these cars are shit. But I think I'll buy one of these bypasses to diagnose this problem more easily. 🤔
Hi thanks for the helpful video I need to know how can open the the magnet sensor we open it?
f ja
Why buy some shit box if buy new part and fix it??? Wher is f logic ?
Mic up
where can you buy the bypass??
Look it up just like it's called... "(insert year and model here) Passenger Seat Occupancy Sensor Bypass". I just bought one on Ebay for my R55, it's on it's way. ;)
Did this to my R56 today, worked like a charm, no issues at all. (No issue with the seatbelt bypass) Bought it from Detroit Tuned. I'll come back and update in a few weeks if I have any issues at all.
What is the part called
