Air Bag Light On- Possible Due to Water Damage?

Post by Losthwy »

I had a mishap two days ago. Slid off into a ditch with standing water, water came into the cabin.Since then the air bag light keeps blinking. Water related or else????

The water could have shorted something out. Depends on how much water and what it came in contact with.
