If you are not a professional with the necessary equipment and training, your best bet is to not mess with it, because it could kill you. The term "airbag" Is a misnomer; because it is not an airbag, it is an explosive device and if you do the wrong thing, it could blow up in your face. Sodium azide is the chemical found in automobile airbags. An electrical charge triggered by automobile impact causes sodium azide to explode and convert to nitrogen gas inside the airbag. Actually, there has been an occurrence where an airbag exploded while being installed before the wires were connected. It was set off by the static charge from friction between the mechanics pants on the seat upholstery

The problem is the crankshaft sensor for sure. It is mounted behind the crankshaft pulley which is pretty difficult to get off as you need a special puller. A shop should charge about 1.5 hours for this job. It is a very common problem.

SOURCE: Rear license plate lights burned out and can't

If i remember correctly the entire rear light assembly must be remove in order to access these bulbs. This is true if the license plate is on the trunk. If this is the case then there are nuts on the inside of the trunk that must be removed.

SOURCE: 1997 Buick Lesabre Water Pump problem

THE POWER STEERING PUMP PULLEY --- ARRGGH...Not a problem. The power steering pump is held by two bolts. Use a socket and remove the top bolt and loosen the bottom bolt. Be careful not to completely remove the bottom bolt. The PS pump will loosen up enough so that you can push it towards the firewall and you will JUST have enough room to remove the waterpump bolts. Its tight but it will squeeze out.

Had a serpteen belt replaced . when picked up auto air bag light was on . where is mogual or switch located????

A serpentine belt being replaced should have nothing to do with the Airbag. Unless there was a careless animal working on it.
There would be one or two sensors up front. On the radiator support or the frame rails where the bumper bolts to.
There will also be a module/sensor inside the car in a central location like under the dash or center console.
But even an airbag that has been unplugged will trigger the light.

If you go to check all the airbag items just look for the stuff with the bright yellow (or orange sometimes) wire loom or tape. That bright loom (or tape) is used to identify wiring for the airbag system.

Steering column is becoming loose on 1997 Buick Lesabre.

i dont think their is an adjustment under the sterring wheel. ive had mine apart to do a clockspring. the only nut under the air bag is to hold the steering wheel itself on the column, not to tighten the column itself. try looking under the dash for some studs and nuts holding the whole column itself. that should fix your problem. i dont recommend pulling the airbag and steering wheel for any reason. its very comlpicated under their and all the parts are expensive!
