SRS is not DIY. I strongly suggest you go to a reputable repairer an have it scanned and unless you are very competent Auto Tech leave it to them to repair.The SRS lamp is warning you that the Supplimentry Restraint System has a fault and will NOT funtion if you have an accident. Therfore you don't have this as a backup with your seatbelts .There is a good chance that it is the pressure pad in the passengers seat as has been suggested along with loom and module failures.

If it was going on and off as the seat was being used, then it sounds like the sensor in the seat, this can be changed but the upholstery has to come off, best thing take it in and have the it put on to merc’s computer,

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 connectivity2_bing.gif 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.

SRS light

We had the seat pan replaced on the passenger side because the SRS indication came on. My wife put her knee right in the middle of the seat, probably breaking the sensor, while assisting the kids in the back seat.
