Methods for self-repairing when the airbag light is on: 1. Check the connectors: If a connector in the airbag system is disconnected or has poor contact, especially after installing additional electrical devices or disassembling the steering wheel, pay special attention to the connection status of the connectors. 2. Loose ground wire in some part of the car: Check the contact condition of each ground wire. Since poor contact is often not visible to the naked eye, it is advisable to tighten all ground connections. Situations when the airbag warning light is on: 1. Instrument self-check: When entering the car and starting the engine, the instrument panel performs an automatic check. The airbag light will automatically turn off after the self-check, which takes about 5 seconds. This is normal. If the airbag light remains on for a long time after the self-check, it can be concluded that there is a real fault. 2. False fault: A low battery can also cause the airbag light to come on, and the airbag may feedback a signal indicating low pressure in a certain airbag, generating a fault code. In this case, simply clear the fault code. 3. Real fault: If the above two reasons are ruled out, it may be a wiring fault, and immediate repair is recommended.
