How to resolve the continuous illumination of the airbag warning light in a Haval H6?
2 Answers
Visit a certified repair shop to read the fault codes, inspect the airbag system or indicator light circuits based on the fault codes, and use a diagnostic computer to extract the fault codes for repairs. If the airbag warning light illuminates when the ignition is turned on and extinguishes after approximately 6 seconds, this is considered normal. If the airbag fault light illuminates after installing floor mats in the vehicle, it is highly likely due to improper operation affecting the airbag wiring.
I've worked in an auto repair shop for many years and frequently deal with the airbag light issue on the Haval H6. The root cause is a problem with the airbag system, which may include loose wiring, sensor failure, control module damage, or insufficient power supply. First, simply check if the battery terminals are oxidized, disconnect the negative terminal for a few minutes, then reconnect it to see if the light goes off. If it's still on, you'll likely need to scan for trouble codes, use a diagnostic tool to read the specific error code, and then address the issue accordingly. Don't randomly disassemble the airbag components yourself, as it can easily lead to accidental triggering and danger. When the airbag stops working, its protective function in an accident is gone, so don't delay—take it to a professional repair shop or a 4S store for inspection. During regular maintenance, remember to have the technician check the related wiring to prevent small issues from turning into big troubles.
