How do you clear the airbag warning light?
- Put the key into the ignition and turn the switch to the “on” position.
- Watch for the airbag light to turn on. It will stay illuminated for seven seconds and then shut itself off. After it shuts off, immediately turn the switch off and wait three seconds.
- Repeat Steps 1 and 2 two more times.
Will disconnecting the battery reset the airbag light?
No, this information is stored in non volatile memory. The airbag light is usually on if there’s a problem with the system. Even if you could clear the code which is reporting that, if the problem isn’t fixed then it will just be detected again, and the light will come back on.
