Flashing Air Bag Light.
-> 206 Problems

#1: Flashing Air Bag Light. Author: devildriverxii, Location: Stevenage PostPosted: Wed Dec 14, 2011 8:07 am
    ----
My air bag light keeps flashing, I noticed it after I parked with the wheel fully locked anti-clockwise, and it seems to start flashing if I have to turn the wheel more than 2 rotations...this might just be coincidence but i thought I'd mention it.

Can I still drive? of is it likely to go off, I really can't afford any repairs right now =(

I changed the steering wheel and air bag loom about 9 months ago, and it's been fine, so I'm pretty sure it's not that.

Any ideas?

I did search, but I could only read one page, then I got this...

Sounds like the loom might be coming just loose enough when you turn the wheel for it to loose its connection and throw a fault up in the ecu. Needs the codes reading to be sure though unless you want to pull the wheel off and check all the connections.

But it's not a huge problem though, I can still drive it about tonight and fix tomorrow.

I know that's not the best attitude to have, but I just can't be arsed today.

Ah nice, I will get round to it, having an extra light on is always handy, I currently have no MFD, any my climate control illuminations are dead too...it's pretty dark in there at night Laughing

Toooooo dark Wink

If you removed your MFD and climate control, you'll be surprised at just how dark it can get.
