It is helpful to know the the year, make, and model of your car.
Just about all airbag systems will keep track of what has caused their problem. You need to have a shop or dealer with the right scanning tools read the airbag module and give you the diagnosis.
before you start your car the airbag module will scan all connections in the car, and if any do not have the correct signal it will flash the airbag light (this also indicates that the airbag system is not functional) so if you are in an accident while the light is on. the airbags will not deploy.
The problem could be a broken clock spring in the steering column, they are good for 15-20 years depending on how much the car was driven in those years. could be a faulty seat belt sensor, broken wire, bad crash sensor, Etc.
So get the car scanned and make short work of finding the problem, cost effective ?
You'll have to decide.
NO may be the clock spring in your steering wheel is broken or the impact sensor in the front is defective but don't worry it will not open when your driven.
Talk to your insurance company first. If they are giving a discount based on these safety features and you choose to circumvent them and down the road you have an accident they may choose to deny your claim.
Sounds like possible charging system problems to me. Also, Having the airbag light flashing is a serious safety issue. I would recommend getting it properly diagnosed and/or repaired by a trained technician.
its unfortunate but u are not able to.
Your vehicle has multiple computers controlling all the electrics.
When a warning light comes on such as your airbag light or an engine light it is usually because of a fault.
if there is a fault and you ignore it and just cancel the light, then in an accident the airbag might not deploy. which would not be a good end result.
i would take it to a mechanic who has a scan tool to find the code that is causing your airbag light to come on, then fix the issue.
this will solve your airbag light problem and keep you safe on the roads as well.
An airbag is not likely to falsely deploy. Whenever the light is on it means the airbag system is disabled. However it is never safe driving a vehicle with a malfunctioning airbag system.
Air bag sensor got knocked loose and either needs to be replaced or needs to be re mounted. You may have to take it to a dealership to get them to figure out which one has gone
