Why does my airbag light stay on?
If your airbag warning light remains on long after starting your car, either the light is faulty or the airbag. The light comes on for a few seconds and then goes off to show that it’s working. If it remains on, then there’s a problem with the system, and the airbag may not deploy in an accident.
Can low battery cause airbag light?
When this light is on, that means your airbags are deactivated. It means they will not deploy properly if you get into an accident. If your car’s battery has drained recently, it may have also depleted the backup battery that powers the airbags.
Can an airbag go off accidentally?
Air bags may accidentally deploy. Sometimes an air bag will deploy when a vehicle hits a curb or even a pothole. This accidental or inadvertent deployment can not only directly cause injury to an occupant, it can cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle and have a serious collision.
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 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.
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.
Why does the passenger side airbag light stay on?
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). She sat down and the passenger light went off as it should, but the original light stays on.
