Why does the dash light come on on my Mitsubishi Triton?
The lights come on for 2 reasons, 1 is if something had deployed like an airbag or a seat belt pre-tensioner (so check the latter if it has them, not sure how Mitsubishi do it but on some brands the female part of the seatbelt connector will have retracted a bit and be sunken).
Do you clear trouble codes before resetting airbag light?
Do never clear the trouble codes before you fix the problem caused by the airbag light. Read the codes and get information about what can cause the problem and therefore continue the diagnosis. You should never just reset the airbag light without repairing the problem.
Where is the button to turn off the airbag light?
This is the first thing you should check when you want to remove the airbag light. Maybe someone before you turned it to Off by mistake, which will make the airbag light stay on in most cars. This button is usually on the dashboard on the passenger side, and you may see it if you open the passenger door or the glove box.
