How does the airbag light work on a Mini Cooper?
by Kyle Sanstrom. The airbag light in a 2003 Mini Cooper illuminates when the airbag computer determines that a problem exists within the airbag system. When the computer activates this light, it also disables the entire airbag system to prevent a malfunctioning component from potentially injuring one or more of the vehicle’s occupants.
Why is there a warning light on my Mini Cooper?
Not an MOT failure at present but there are plans being discussed to change this in the future. On older MINI’s most of the airbag warning light faults are due to a mommentary bad connection to the seat airbag wiring harness when a seat is moved/adjusted, therefore storing a fault code and triggering the warning light.
Is the BMW MINI Cooper R50 airbag light reset?

Is there a way to reset the air bag warning light?
The light remains on even if the fault has gone until reset by a dealer often costing approx. £50-80 outside warranty. For around £50 on ebay, etc, you can buy a BMW/MINI SRS airbag light reset tool (such as the B200), read the fault code yourself and put out the light.
