Default Airbag System Flash Codes - can AutoEnginuity clear them?

Does AutoEnginuity with the Jaguar Enhancement Package allow SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) 'Bxxxx' codes to be read and cleared?

I've got the older version of AutoEnginuity which doesn't support the Jaguar extension so it means buying the whole package. No point in doing this if it won't let me clear the codes.

The airbag warning Light is giving Flash Code 17 (1 flash + 7 flashes repeated three times before a permanent airbag warning light is displayed):

After checking the possible causes detailed in the TSB, the codes still have to be cleared. Rectifying the fault doesn't put the warning light out.

Are you certain? On my '03 XKR I had a bad connector to the bag in the drivers seat. Fixing the problem cleared the flashing...

My 03 XKR had a 22 air bag error code and after I cleaned all the connectors in the drivers seat it took care of the air bag error lite.

You can never be certain with Jaguar electronics.

With the seat track fault, did you get a constantly illuminated airbag warning immediately after starting the vehicle or a series of flashes first?

Bill,

A sanity check that I'm interpreting flash codes correctly:

1 flash : pause : 7 flashes

This is followed by a long pause and the same sequence runs twice more. I've assumed this means Code 17. Is that right?
