You need a diagnostic tool that can reset fault codes on your dash. Most garages have these, you can usually buy cheap versions of them yourself on eBay which do actually work for basic functions and are a good investment as they will tell you the fault code which tells you in more detail the problem causing the fault symbol. But if there is an ongoing problem causing it, it will just simply come back on after resetting the light until the cause of the problem is fixed. If your not confident on doing it yourself, i would always reccomend taking the car to a qualified mechanic as sometimes you can do more damage than good if your not careful. If you need to find a diagnostic tool to fit your car, reply and i will try and help you.

Hello, Airbags are only serviceable by the dealership, the light indicates there is a problem in the Airbag system and they will not deploy in case of an accident. Regular scanners would not read anything related to Airbags. Talk to your dealrship, I would ask if there is any safety recalls concerning airbags on your model.

Have you had the electronics tested for fault codes? That is the 1st step when you have a problem like this.

This appears to be a well known issue. I found this Solved maybe . I had the same issue when i changed one of the Daylight Running Lights in the front and one of my rear brake lamps. I ended up changed both brake lamps since its a two pack, the front lights all looked well. The rear, one was off even if i changed both. I was puzzled but then tried to turn off my DRL from the menu section on the front panel which didn't work. Opened the brake lamps and checked them again and they all worked. I reset my error codes (check your manufacturer book) mine was 5 pumps with engine off then key out and then engine on. The "check running lights" code disappeared as well. Make sure to check all your lights are on(front back. Hope that works for one of you at least! and also I has the exact same issue. DRL going out when headlamps turned on. I found the problem. It's a simple fix. It was a bad connection between the bulb and the bulb holder. I noticed wiggling the bulb made it come on and off. The fix is to bend the exposed wires on the bulb so that they stand proud rather than squashed flat against the bulb. I did it by gently prizing them away from the bulb and then I put a small screw driver underneath it and pressed the wire back down again. You could use a cocktail stick or march stick or similar. This makes the contact between the bulb and the holder tighter. Job done. Lots more here. https://www.google.com/search?q=2009+Fiat+500.+Yellow+triangle+on+dash+%27check+running+lights%27 ..
