Why is my airbag light not working on my Subaru?

Connection of (AB6) to airbag control module is improper. The first thing to do is to check for trouble codes. I believe that the Subaru Select Monitor or a similar code reader capable of communicating with the airbag control module is needed, therefore necessitating a visit to the dealer. The airbag DTCs are 2-digit codes.

Where is the airbag light on a Subaru Outback?

There’s a 6 pole pin connector up under the cover below the steering wheel – sort of “above the gas pedal” next to the center console side of the drivers foot well area. there’s a few dangling plugs there, two green plugs, a black plug or two…woah there’s a hummingbird 8 feet from me, cool – and a bunch of connectors.

Why does the airbag light stay on all the time?

Few more hours later, wife in car, airbag light stays on again. Turn off car, restart, this time it doesn’t go away. (Btw, It’s not the passenger’s airbag light) I have her lift off the seat just to eliminate that possibility, the passenger side airbag light comes on (obviously, no weight on the seat).

Why is the SRS light on on my Subaru Outback?

The connectors are always yellow for SRS (airbag) system components. They are very annoying to separate (that’s an understatement), you may have no clue how to remove it. Probably no need to anyway, just a visual should do. The underseat connector is easily accessible and the seats arent’ hard to remove at all.

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.

What happens if you reset the airbag light?

You should never just reset the airbag light without repairing the problem. This can deploy the airbags or non-functioning if an accident occurs. Let a professional replace the airbag’s parts if you are not sure of how to do it. Remember always to remove the battery connection when working with airbags.
