You say airbag light but the code it for a faulty BCM?
B1001 Code - BCM Configuration Error: This error occurs when the BCM detects a discrepancy or error in its calibration settings. The BCM is a crucial component in modern vehicles, responsible for controlling and monitoring various electronic accessories in the car, such as interior lighting, door locks, and alarm system.
Possible causes for this error could include:
Faulty BCM: The BCM itself might be malfunctioning.
Software Needs Update: The software of the BCM could be outdated or corrupted, requiring reprogramming or an update.
Electrical Issues: Problems in the electrical connections leading to the BCM, like loose connections, corroded wires, or damaged terminals, can trigger this code.
Aftermarket Installations: Sometimes, aftermarket installations (like alarm systems, audio systems, etc.) can interfere with the BCM's operation.
