Is your horn working?. Please, check. It looks like "the horn airbag switch" has cut. Did you just worked on your steering rack?

Hi I have a similar issue. But in my case the steering wheel was worked on in order to realign the wheels. Since the light keeps flashing. Can it be repaired esp since the bag was not deployed?
Re: Airbag Light Has Refused To Go Off.. Pls Help!!! by Delphi(m): 9:57pm On Oct 15, 2018
Alright, not a big issue. Your mechanic didn't 'lock' the steering base before working. That's the reason the 'horn-airbag switch' got cut.
Suitably, it is an auto electrician that will replace it. He will just remove the switch which is at the base of the steering (underneath the plastic cover) then he buys another and fixes. Usually, it's not that expensive. The price depends on your car model but it's somewhat around/below #5k.

I also have airbag issues. 2007 Nissan Pathfinder and 2011 Sonata. Have not been able to diagnose the issue.
Does any mechanic here have the scanner that can diagonise these models.

Run a scan on the airbag computer. You might be having a bad clock spring

Did you leave your window open? Did it rain? Sometimes, the passengers airbag malfunctions when the seats are moist. If you are sure the airbag is intact, ensure u sun dry ur car, the light wud disappear.

I'm experiencing the same thing with my 06 corolla too. I read somewhere to check the cable connectors under the front passenger's seat, that the cable can come loose and trigger the airbag light. I've checked mine but the light is still there, you can give it a try, maybe it might work for you.
