#1: Airbag Warning Light keeps coming on Author: skov, Location: CambsPosted: Thu Oct 18, 2012 5:16 am ---- Hi all,
The airbag warning light keeps coming on on my 2005 206.
It seems to light up after about 40 minutes of driving, but clears if I leave the ignition off for a while.
Any ideas?

Might be a faulty airbag or even a dodgy connection on the isolation switch.

I did think it might be a dodgy battery, but it's voltage (and the charging voltage) look ok.
I guess I'll worry about it if/when it comes back!

Rather than waiting for 40 minutes it started warning me within a couple of minutes of starting the car.
Slightly worrying as I have my MOT booked for next week!
I actually checked the battery again today, and it appears to be knackered afterall.
I picked up and fitted a replacement at lunch and the warning didn't come back during my commute home, so fingers crossed that's fixed the problem.
I swear the car's running better now too!

I had a similar problem on my old 206. Try the connections under the drivers seat. I'm lead to believe there connected to the seat belt tensioner and air bag. If you adjust your seat often due to sliding it back and forth, sometimes it comes loose. Just another suggestion though.

99% sure it was the battery though. The airbag warning hasn't come back since I changed it.
