Been having dreaded Airbag light that comes and goes. Shop said it reads from a passenger airbag connection. Where exactly should I be looking for this connection(s)? I figure there's one under the door panel. Do I need to take the entire panel off to locate the connection or can it be found under the window switch? Is there more than just that airbag to look for, or another culprit?

 

the passenger airbag is the one on the dash where the airbag switch and dash grab handle live

 

Post the SRS codes and we can help. I got 2 happy meal coupons that say it is not connections, but a bad module instead.

 

B0017 front right deployment loop.

 

 

Same code my 07 had, connection was perfect, the Module #9 went bad, would not communicate. Those things ain't cheap so I hope it is just dirty connections.



If you are just getting an occasional air bag fault light, you can clear the BCM by placing the vehicle in Neutral, engine running, put one foot on the brake and hold it there, push the Emergency brake on with the other foot and release it, repeat the E brake and release 5 times fairly quickly. If the light stays off, it was a glitch.

 

Ok I'll try the BCm reset since I don't have to take anything apart for that task.
I'm thinking the connection to the BCM should be the first to be tested? Do I need to remove the seat for that task?

 

The BCM is not the SRS Module. The Module is under the center console. The BCM is behind the passenger side kick panel. The BCM might be erroneously commanding the air bag light ON, other than that, the BCM is not involved. Do my BCM reset procedure, if the light stays on, you have bigger problems.

Good enough.
