VAG seatbelt pretensioner lost comms with control module.

[ohreally]

Following a repair unrelated to seatbelts, I get a brief pop-up informing that "proactive passanger protection restricted"?

Conducting a scan I find...

2 Faults Found:
12680960 - No Communication with Control Module for Seat Belt Tensioner; Front Right
U017F 00 [00001001] - -
[New feature! Extended UDS fault detail is only supported by current gen. interfaces]
Confirmed - Tested Since Memory Clear
13650688 - Local data bus
U104B 00 [00001000] - Implausible signal
[New feature! Extended UDS fault detail is only supported by current gen. interfaces]
Intermittent - Confirmed - Tested Since Memory Clear


There have been no impact events. I am unable to reset.

Any ideas on way forward?

Car is 2015 MQB VW Golf.

Tia.

Repair was a heater matrix replacement.

@Richard-D can you advise where the control module is located in this instance.
