Airbag Light On

[Nathan Russell]

Hi Guys.

My airbag light randomly came on yesterday. Any idea on what I should be investing?

In the engine bay. Near the lights. There is a yellow clip on the left and right. See if they are plugged in. This happened to me

Look under the seat for loose connections, check with vcds.

I’d vote with the connections under the seats.

First things first thought before you go delving into it all. I’d advise you to disconnect the battery and leave it disconnected for at least 10 mins before playing with the plugs.

The air bag systems work of piezo Chrystal and it only takes a milivolt to set one off. So any residual voltage should have gone after 10 mins or so.

Having said there are many people that have disconnected plugs and reconnected them without any issue. I’d always advise against soldering air bag wires. Best to make sure that the connectors are clean and corrosion free etc

Another vote for under seat wires. I had passenger seat wire loose in the yellow connector that connects to the floor. Used a wire tie around the connection block to secure it tight.

I'd be running vcds first , then work from their.

Hi Guys.

Checked u see the seats and in the bonnet by the lights. All looks fine. Strangely my esp light is now on also without the button being pressed.

Any thoughts? Getting it scanned tomorrow hopefully!
