You will need diagnostics to reset the light even if you have fixed the problem, but you will need diagnostics to find and fix the problem.

The SRS light is on because the airbag system has developed a fault and is turned off. When the problem that caused this is diagnosed and repaired the light will extinguish itself. Right now you have no airbag protection in a crash, this could cause you serious injury or ***** how much is your life worth, get it repaired. I remember well the horrible damage to the human body before safety features like Airbags and collapsible steering columns to list a few, it was not pretty.

SOURCE: resetting airbag on 2002 kia rio

Typical code readers (OBDII) won't touch the airbag lights. Neither will disconnecting the battery and waiting. If the airbag light is flashing, there's a code involved. The system may or may not work when needed. If it's on steady, the system is failed and will not deploy when needed. Typically, it's a connector in the various harnesses involved. Unfortunately, the Kia shop manuals just say "replace everything" so they're no help. The dealer has the very expensive code reader to read & reset the airbag light. In other words, $$$.

SOURCE: I just go locked out of my X5 BMW 2002 x5 and my

right i had this ***** of a problem 2nd week in jan 2010. a bmw mechanic told to jack car up at front and hook a jumper pack up to live on starter motor terminal and then earth, was quite hard to put croc clip on to starter but did manage it. this was supposed to back charge to battery to get enough power to open car with remote, in theory it should of worked but i gave up after 3 hours-no power. so i got my key put it in drivers door and mechanically turned to open position, then i got a cutlery knife from kitchen and wrapped some insulation tape around tip up 2-3 inches. then i pushed this down glass directly above door handle key end to pry a gap between glass and rubber just enough to slide coat hanger wire in with small hook on end then i manouvered wire hook until i hooked latch arm which i did within 1 minute pulled coathanger wire up and pulled door handle the door opened much to my delight. this was a major sigh of relief after trying for 2 days to get in, and many hours searching the net for a solution which i couldnt find. THIS WORKS 100 percent WITH ABSOLUTELY NO DAMAGE!!!!!!! any questions email me- [email protected]

SOURCE: How to reset the change

Try this procedure and let me know if it does not work.

1. Ignition key in the "Off" or "0" position.

2. Press and hold the odometer button and turn the ignition key to the "Accessory" or "1" position.

3. Keep the odometer button pressed in until you see the following words in the display, "oil service", or "inspection" with "reset" or "re".

4. Press and hold down the odometer button again until "reset" or "re" flash.

5. While the display is flashing, press the odometer button again briefly but do not hold it down this time to reset the service interval indicator. After the display has shown a new service interval then "END SIA" should appear in the display for two seconds.

If the procedure fails the first time then repeat the procedure and it should clear the service interval indicator.

Hi, my airbag light comes on in my 2004 X5 3.0d. When we reset the light it stays off for a couple of days & then it comes back on ? Any suggestions on what I can do to fix this fault. Many Thanks

you need to read the airbag code which will give you the solution instead of just resetting it. Common recurring problems are the occupancy seat sensor and the seat belt connector sensor.

Hi my name is Mike I have a 2002 x5 and in the dash board there was 4 little green lights on on bottom right now I got one red one and one yellow one what does it mean thx lots

Hi Mike. The lights are the service maintenance lights. When an oil service or inspection service is performed the lights should be reset to all green. Over time the lights will go from all green lights and disappear until a yellow light comes on. The yellow means the next service is due. The red means over due.

A scanner can reset any light on the dash, if the problem has been fixed. A code reader will reset the engine light, again if the problem is fixed.

How do I reset the ABS light on a 2003 X5?

Hi,this happened on my x5 before when I forgot to disconnect the battery terminal before disconnecting the power source from the airbag while replacing the window regulator.As long as you don't have any engine fault codes,try to find a local europian car shop and be sure to tell them that you just want it reset an cleared that way you will not be charged for diagnostic.They may charged you around 20 dollars more or less which is better than going to stealership
