Unfortunately you should bring it to a dealer. When the air bag goes off there's crash sensors that need replacing and system needs to be reset. If you were in an accident your insurance should cover it.

How to Reset airbag light

  • Most likely you replaced the clock spring and air bag module right? Well when the srs deploys you also have seatbelt pre-tensioners that are part of the whole retractor assembly and cannot be repaired. Ie either side retractors are not working right , then you need to replace according to chrysler corp.

Air bag light on in 2008 ford focus

For the airbag light situation to be resolved you need the airbag code to be deciphered from a scantool that can read airbag codes,,If the alternator has low output it would turn on also the ABS light,If the car was flooded it is posible that the control module did short out its location in in the center bottom console

How do I remove the turn signal switch from the steering column on a 2003 Buick Centruy

If there is an air bag in the steering wheel - do not attempt to access the switch. If the air bag deploys, it can kill you. If it deploys and does not hurt or kill you - it will hurt your bank account. They are expensive to replace. Please leave this one to the experts.

Air bag warning light came on. I brought it to the BMW dealership and said the seat belt needed to be replaced on the front passengers side. $400 plus. Thoughts? 1999 BMW 328i Sport

It is possible. The system will give codes and point them into the right direction. If it is seatbelts ( I know it seems strange) it is because they may have a charge to them, meaning that they use a sensor (to let the system know when it is latched) and when there is an accident the system deploys airbags as well as releasing a charge to retract the belts and keep you well against the seats to prevent further injury by coliding with the airbag. Replace the latch and have them reset the system. Make they know that they are telling you that this "fixes" the system not they are going to replace parts until the light goes out! Let me know.

My air bag light just came on in my 2006 hyundai sonata

It basically means that the SRS system isn't working.
.Now unless your an ASE Certified Tech do not attempt this repair on your own. Because if you make a mistake it will be a $1,500.00 one,if your air bag deploys. Give it to a repair shop it woun't be that bad.

Air bag warning light on intermitantly

You need to take it to a dealer before it deploys. The warning can mean a bumper sensor is bad, the system has detected a leak in the air bag, or the firing system in one of the airbags has lost connection. The dealer would be able to tell where the problem is and you would not want the bag to deploy while you are working on it yourself.
