How to Deal with Airbag Malfunction?
1 Answers
Methods for handling airbag malfunction: Continue driving the vehicle steadily to the nearest 4S shop or repair shop for inspection. If the airbag warning light continues to flash or remains steadily lit for 6 to 8 seconds after starting the vehicle, or if the airbag warning light flashes for 5 seconds and then stays lit while the vehicle is in operation, these two situations indicate that the airbag may be malfunctioning. The airbag system generally consists of sensors, a microprocessor, an electronic control unit, an airbag cover and support ring, the airbag itself, and an airbag module, among other components. The reason the airbag warning light is on may be due to damage to one of these components. The airbag is a type of vehicle occupant restraint system, with the airbag designed to inflate quickly during a collision and then deflate rapidly, aiming to provide a soft cushion and restraint for the occupants in the event of a collision.
