SRS Module Swap, still getting shadow codes that won't clear

[chasers36]

Hello all,



Looking for some help with an airbag module swap issue. My SRS module was throwing a (240) internal control fault, so I bought a used SRS module to swap out, same part number and version number of my X5. The swap was actually a piece of cake after watching a quick video. The issue I'm having is that I'm coming up with the almost the same codes from before, but its showing that the Internal control unit fault is a shadow error, and not live, same with all the rest of them. The live data shows that everything is in order, besides the seat mat sensor. I cannot clear these codes, using BMW scanner, or INPA. When trying to clear the codes in INPA, it simply says "ERROR_ECU_REJECTED. I'm aware there is an issue with the seat occupancy recognition mat in the passenger seat, and you can see that from the pic below.


I do believe i bought a bad used module, and that now i need to send off the original to get it wiped clean, and reinstall it to see if those shadow errors are gone. I understand that if i dont fix the mat issue, it will continue to still show the airbag light on the dash and store the error with for the mat sensor. Is there an option for me to simply code out the seat sensor, and if i do so, would i just unplug the SBE control unit under the seat? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
