If this is the Air Bag fault light, then have your vehicle checked out and repaired for a failure in the airbag system. Your air bags may not deploy in an accident if you don't get it fixed. When you start your vehicle, the computer checks for the presence of an undeployed airbag. If it doesn't see an airbag it will turn on the light. This could be something as simple as a poor connection. If your planning on driving your can after an airbag deployment, this may be a legal issue, depending on where you live. Legal issues would also apply if your trying to sell a rebuilt auto, without airbags.
1st when the
airbag light is on the system is disabled, so if u have an accident
they will not work, as to the common cause read below.
When
the airbag light is on it means a fault has occurred in the system
and the airbag diagnostic monitor has disabled the system, the most
common problem that turns the light on is a break in the connection
to the steering wheel mounted airbag, this is due to a rotating
ribbon contact that breaks under the steering wheel that connects the
airbag to the wiring harness and the diagnostic monitor, the part is
called th clock spring contact, a coiled up ribbon electrical contact
that turns with the wheel
