How to deal with the airbag light on in Senova D50?

Check the connection status of each plug, reconnect them and wrap a layer of black tape around the plugs for reinforcement. If the light turns off after self-check, it's normal. Inspect the contact condition of all grounding wires. The best method is to tighten every grounding connection. Possible faults in components like crash sensors or airbag control modules. This requires replacing the relevant parts.
A few days ago, the airbag warning light in my Senova D50 came on, and I was really panicked, worried that the airbag wouldn't deploy in case of an accident. After parking, I checked the user manual, which mentioned it might just be a poor sensor connection. I tried inspecting the wiring plug under the driver's seat and indeed found it slightly loose. After reconnecting it firmly, the light went off. However, if you encounter this issue, don’t take it lightly. First, check for any foreign objects around the connection points or seatbelt buckle. If the light remains on, drive to a 4S shop immediately for a professional diagnostic scan of the fault code. I later learned that such problems are common due to aging wiring or sensor false alarms. Ignoring it poses too much risk—repairs usually cost just a few hundred bucks, so don’t skimp on safety.
I've been driving this Senova D50 for over five years, and the airbag light has come on two or three times, each time resolved with minor fixes. I remember once after rain the light came on, and I simply disconnected the battery negative terminal, waited ten minutes, and restarted the system—it returned to normal. But if the light stays on continuously, you need to be cautious; it could indicate a faulty airbag module or damaged sensor. I recommend first checking the wiring under the seats and steering wheel for any looseness or corrosion; if that doesn't help, have a technician diagnose it. Never ignore the airbag light—it means the airbag system is disabled and won't provide protection in a collision. Spending some time on repairs can prevent major accidents, which is definitely worth it.
The airbag system in the Senova D50 includes collision sensors and a control module. The illuminated light indicates that the system has detected an error during self-test, which may be caused by sensor issues or circuit short circuits. The solution is to connect an OBD2 diagnostic tool to read the fault code, thereby determining whether it's a loose connector or a failure of a key component. If you don't have the tools, don't attempt to disassemble it yourself, as it can easily lead to problems; a simple inspection at a repair shop can clarify the issue. If the light remains on, it affects safety because the airbag may not deploy in an accident. Be sure to check it as soon as possible and don't delay.
