What is the solution for the airbag light on in Haval H6?
2 Answers
It is normal for the light to illuminate for about 6 seconds when the ignition switch is turned on and then turn off. If the light remains on after starting or while using the vehicle, it indicates a fault in the airbag system. A diagnostic tool is needed to retrieve the fault code for repair. When the SRS light is on, the airbag system is deactivated. The vehicle should be repaired.
When the airbag light comes on, it's no small matter. I encountered this issue while driving my Haval H6, and it's usually caused by loose airbag wiring under the seat or an unsecured connector. I would first check if the battery terminals are tight, as low voltage can trigger false fault warnings. If the light remains on, it means there's a genuine system issue—don't attempt to fix it yourself. Drive straight to the 4S shop to read the fault codes with a diagnostic tool. The airbag is a life-saving system, and a lit warning light means it might not deploy in an accident, which is extremely dangerous. Once, I delayed repairs for a month, only to find out it was a faulty sensor. It cost a bit to fix, but I felt much more at ease afterward. For regular maintenance, I recommend having a technician periodically inspect the airbag wiring connections—prevention is always better than dealing with a crisis. The car is quite durable, but it's best to address such minor issues early.
