Airbag light on

Post by BrewBoy29 »

Hello all.I just bought a 2005 Vibe and have some things to sort out, one of them being the driver's side airbag light (which is currently on all the time). I came across this thread http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=38960 and it mentions the radio may somehow be involved. My Vibe has an a Sony stereo in it and since the guy I bought the car from made no mention of when the light problem began, I figured it's as good a place to start as any.My question though is how exactly do I determine IF the radio is causing the problem? What would I be looking for wiring-wise?Thanks for any input.Jason

first thing i would do is get the code pulled from the module and see what it is. it is almost imposible to guess whats wrong without the code. there might even be the posibility it was wrecked at one time and not fixed right.by the way welcome to genvibe

When you say code do you mean just like an engine fault code? Something that can be read through the OBD??Thanks for the welcome. I've been doing a lot of reading in the last few days...lots of great stuff!Jason
