Air Bag Warning Light Constantly On. by wesleyel: 11:43am On Apr 20, 2017
My vehicle (2005 Toyota corolla) air bag light recently came on and stayed on. I tired adjusting the cables under the seats and inspecting them, but its still on. Also tried disconnecting the battery overnight to reset the computer system, the light went off briefly but came back on again. Went to a rewire to ask for his opinion, he said the airbag has expired. I did some research online and found out that airbags don't technically expire though they do have replacement span of 10 - 15years for older cars. Anyone with any ideas as to how to resolve this?

OK thanks. Is the SRS module separate or it's part if the whole system?

Airbag is never reliable especially when the car is 5years older from manufacturing date.

An airbag light will not go off unless the fault is rectified and system codes erased using a professional scan tool. Small handheld scanners are usually incapable of scanning SRS systems.

Go do SRS system scan, fix issue and have the system reset. Your light will stay off afterwards if no new issues are detected.
