Well really the only wsay you can figure out why the air bag light is on,is to go to the dealer so they can hook up the scanner and see what code it has in it,there could be a bunch of different things wrong with but the code will point you in the right direction,,,,,,but only the dealer scanner will read air bag codes,the cheaper scanners like auto zones actron,and even the cheaper snap-on and mac do not read it either,so your kinda stuck going to the dealer to find out, if your not familiar with air bags let them work on it,as you could accidently deploy the air bags when your working with the system,,they are sensitive and i would not want to see you get injured

Can the knee bolster in a 1997 Buick Le Sabre be removed without removing the passenger air bag? If so what is the procedure?

Best not to mess around with it and take into the dealers to let them sort it out as you will probably stuff it up and render it useless....

How can i reset 2007 Chevy Equinox service air bag light ?

Reset (clear) a dash light ---AFTER--- a problem has been
found & repaired ?

Best to use a code reader or professional scan tool,
so you do not loose data & items you my need

Clearing a dash light is NOT A FIX for ANYTHING

It will come back until you find & resolve the issues

As is--- you have-- NO Air Bag Protection--IT IS TURNED OFF

Air bag light is on constantly

If the warning light stays on after the engine starts, the system is disabled.
You'll need to get the body computer scanned for trouble codes to proceed.

Is it safe to drive your car with the air bag light staying on?

If you don't mind being in an accident &
possibly have no air bag deploy

Why wouldn't you have it checked out,
instead of asking a question like that?

There is a lot more to that system than air bags alone

If the air bag light stays on you have a fault in the Air Bag system. Take it in for service ASAP and have it scanned for the air bag fault.

AC cold on passenger hot on drivers side

Sounds like multiple problem's. The a/c sound's like low on freon.The air bag and ses light are seperate systems from the a/c.Any time the service engine light is on it has to do with the engine system,the air bag is also seperate.Need to take in and have the code's checked for the service light and they can also check the air bag system and see what codes are stored and go from there.

Daewoo nubira - oil and air bag light problem

For your oil lamp, I will suggest you quickly attend to this as it may be telling you that there is not enough pressure in the system as the light will only turn off when there is enough pressure in the lubrication system. It might be a foulty oil pressure switch.
For your air bag, it might be just the passenger air bag module which hasn't been reconnected or a disconnected loom?
I'll suggest you bring it back to the electrician who's installed your A/C and let them fix it.
Cheers.
