Help airbag lite

[MrScalia]

back in Jan. my wife got in a wreck in my 93. cracked the grill and hood and headlite mangment .

never a problem with airbags or airbag lite.

just got done removing and putting back the bumper cover and putting a headlite mangment (the large thing that the holds headlites)

when I start it up the airbag lite keeps blinking.

I know it wasn't from the wreck, cuz it never blinked untill I took the front end apart.

What did I do ?? How can I fix it.

I already pulled the battery cable to clear the CPU

Help this sucks!!

When it blinks its actually telling you a code. Watch the blinking when you start it.. For an example....


Code 12 would be signaled by, 1 flash, long pause, 2 flashes

Code 45 would be signaled by, 4 flashes, long pause, 5 flashes


If you have multiple codes present, there will be nothing that seperates them other than the pause between flashes. Your best bet is to have a piece of paper handy, and write them down.


IF the car had a front end ht, it's prolly just a front collision sensor acting up. They are pretty tempermental.

There are 2 attached to the headlight mounting panel. They are just little Square black boxes with a couple of wires comming out of em'.

Good to hear Buddy....eventually it would have burnt out the thermal fuse in the airbag ecu....

I hope you have it back on the road soon. Did you get the hood adjusted yet? I will be looking for another chrome strip for you next week, and if I find one I will UPS it instead of USPS.
