Urgency: High
Airbag Warning Light (SRS)
Have this checked promptly. It is not an immediate stop, but do not ignore it for long.
What the Airbag Warning Light (SRS) Means
The airbag (SRS) light on a your car means the supplemental restraint system has logged a fault. When it is on, one or more airbags or pretensioners may not deploy in a crash — a genuine safety concern even though the car drives normally.
Common Causes
- Faulty or corroded seat/airbag connector
- Bad clock spring in the steering wheel
- Seat-belt pretensioner fault
- Crash sensor or SRS module fault
- Low battery voltage during start
How to Fix It
- Check that seats have not been moved with connectors disturbed
- Scan for SRS (B-series) codes with a capable scan tool
- Inspect connectors under the front seats for corrosion
- Repair the specific circuit or replace the clock spring as indicated
- Clear codes and confirm the light goes out
