Title: Airbag warning light
Post by phatt98 on Mar 12th, 2009, 7:03am
Me again :)

My dashboard airbag warning light flashes...

1,2,3,4... 1,2,3.4...

Any ideas?

The code details are Here (http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/airbags.htm). Let us know how you get on as aibag faults are rarely mentioned here. Be sure to follow the safety instructions. ;) If you need to remove the airbag then click on the 'button' on the left hand side of the page for the Airbag Manual which has all the details you will need. :)

hi there

check the wiring under the seats as it sometimes gets disturbed by rear seat passengers.

4 Flashes        Pyrotechnic seatbelt pre-tensioner failure (Either side)

Hmmmm - could be linked to also having a problem with the electric drivers seat not responding correctly when adjusting...

Is the seatbelt tensioner an MOT fail?

Airbag light is not a failure, only fail on a dash lamp would be ABS.

good! although mine's not due until September... thanks for letting me know...

next question... does anyone know what I need to do to fix the seatbelt tensioner? Or, if not, which fuse do I need to remove to disable that bl**dy warning light?  >:(
