SRS dashboard light on mitsubishi galant 2001

Here's a quick check list for most common cost of SRS / Air bag problem.


Dirty contacts on driver and passenger seat belt buckles

Dirty contacts on seat belt connectors (under seats)

Dirty contacts on driver and passenger sides weight sensors (under seat)

Seat covers

Weight on passenger seat

(Example: grocery package trigger SRS / Air Bag light on the way home.)

I recommend you to pass an vacuum over the contacts and use CRC electronic parts cleaner to rule out connectivity problem.

I DO NOT disconnecting the negative battery connector to clean the code(s)

Without the code(s) the dealer will takes "BILLABLE" time to reproduce the problem.

Please rate me answer if it is useful to you.

The srs light on means the system is not working and that it needs to be serviced take to the dealer for a approved oem scanner to be put on it and find the problem.

Shoot down to the mechanics who should have a code reader, he will be able to read and reset any error codes for you. Most mechanics won't charge for looking. Good luck
