So i was driving last night at 6am driving my friend home after drinking... and the airbag light came on on the HWY it said "AIRBAG FAILED" then i went to get gas turned off the car... then the light went away when i left... that would stay on the history on the ECU... i wanna know if i should take it to the dealer..
View 3 RepliesWhile driving on the highway I lowered my seat. Once it got to the lowest setting, I heard something sort of like a snap, and it threw an airbag light, so I raised the seat back up. I'm new to VW, but I know there's lots of possibilities for the light.

Every time I start the truck, the Passenger Side Airbag light is on, which is saying the airbag is turned "OFF." I have to push the button to turn the light off, which turns the airbag "ON." How do I reset this to where the airbag is "ON" until I turn it "OFF?"

View 6 RepliesHere's the problem with my 1994 Ford Aerostar 3.0 engine. As many have mentioned here, I'm getting the 5 chimes syndrome, indicating an issue with the airbag system. My specifics are:
The Airbag light does NOT light, even when the key is first turned on. You would think the light might be burned out, but I removed the instrument cluster and tested EVERY bulb. After hooking the instrument cluster back up, the light still wouldn't light, but I still get the 5 beeps.
The horn works (haven't tested the cruise control).
I'm not sure where to begin troubleshooting. I have the basic Chilton manual, but it's not troubleshooting the SRS. I understand the cautions when working on the SRS system, but would like to troubleshoot it myself. Unfortunately, I got laid off, and I can't afford to go to the Ford Shop.

I noticed the other day that when the key is turned to the proving circuit position, in addition to the warning lights on the dash illuminating, the air bag light comes on and flashes.
When the key is turned to start and released, the warning lights go out, and the air bag light flashes four of five times then goes out.
I've owned the van so long now that I'm beginning to see things that are there, but may have always been there and are quite normal.
I had the wheel bearings replaced at my 5000 mile oil change. The noise is still there. Rotors warped, axle bearings, it gets louder when I turned to the right on the highway and gets quieter when I turn left (classic wheel bearing sound).
View 10 RepliesMy airbag light flashes six times when I turn my car on. Then it remains on while I'm driving. I have no clue what this means.
View 4 RepliesMy car turned off and lost all power randomly on the highway. This is what happened on the cluster when I tried to start it up. Alternator maybe?

I am installing Sparco Evo Seats, a custom Harness Bar and racing harnesses in my MK4 R32 and have questions about wiring of the airbag and seatbelt sensor. What do I need to do so the airbag light and seatbelt warning light do not come on.

View 11 RepliesI purchased a 2002 2.0 jetta a couple of months ago and not long after I had it I noticed that the airbag light had come on. I brought it to a garage and had them check it out and they came back with a code that read 01218 side airbag igniter passenger side. When. I asked about getting this fixed they really couldn't say much about what exactly the problem was other then to say that it could be a problem with the whole system...which I don't get as the code only came back for the side airbag igniter. I also went and spoke to the dealer here in town and they wouldn't even speak to me about it unless I let them have the car be seen by one of their mechanics and putting the computer on it to read the code which I had already told them about.

the piece where the passenger side seat belt clicks into has a chunk broken off of it, now im assuming that this is causing most (maybe all?) of the problem here?
I was check fuses looking to see if taillight bulb was bad. I pulled out a few while the car was running, then there was a beep, and airbag light came on. Tailight fuse was ok, just had a bad bulb. Put in new bulb, everything works fine but airbag light stays on. All fuses are good.
View 3 RepliesI have a couple of fun curves I hit daily and most days I push the car pretty hard. So, I hit one the other day on the way home from work and the freaking airbag light came on with a fault message. I immediately suspected that when my seat belt tightened that the sensor in the seat belt connector freaked out. I later scanned with VAGCOM and confirmed that I have the famous high resistance message for the driver side seat belt connector. I remember that some people had luck by cleaning the connections to the bottom of the seat and the switch. Maybe that is all I have to do. Got to love the .:R. I break stuff as fast as I fix stuff.

View 6 RepliesMy 2010 GTI with 18.6k miles has been doing great until now. After a brief stop on hwy. coming back from Florida the airbag light stayed on and the cruise control stopped working. Its at dealer's now and I got a rental from VW. Guy in shop did not seem to have a clue. He talked about a module or wiring. He asked me if car had been in a wreck - no.

View 2 RepliesI'm looking for the secret to eliminating the airbag light when running an after market wheel. I realize that not everyone agrees with this modification, but could we stick to the subject at hand. I know there are some hubs that come with a premade resistor that you plug in that eliminates the light, and I've read that some people use a 4.7 resistor. I don't have a plug in resistor, I've tried the 4.7 and that didn't work for me. I've never been able to find any place that would sell the plug in resistor separately, is this possible? What I might have done wrong?

Last night, my 2008 Prius was hit from the rear. The bumper was damaged as well as a few starches on the hatch. However the latch for the hatch was move forward so the hatch no longer latches. Also during the collision, my daughter's heavy backpack was throw against the back of the passenger seat with enough force to hurt her back.
The airbag warning light remains on along with the dash indicator saying the airbag is off. Does mean all the airbags are disabled? Can this be reset? The car will be professionally repaired but I still need to drive it until I can get it repaired.
