Air bag light

[1996Mark]

Anybody have any idea why my air bag light is on? Its been on since I bought the car, it gets really annoying seeing it lit up at night.

? Maybe there's a problem or....remove the bulb.

 

[Right on the Mark]

Does it flash a code like LS's do?

I thought about pulling the bulb, but would rather find out what makes it come on. If I cant figure that out I will pull the bulb. And it doenst flash, its just on constantly

You don't know the history on the car? Maybe one of the air bags aren't plugged in.

Perhaps you have a bad clockspring. Does the cruise control work? Does the horn work. If not, I would bet on a bad clockspring.

Is it doing the 32 code flash? Then it is probably your clockspring unless your cruise and horn work. Then it's under the seat for the ass detector switch plugin which can go bad.

I forgot about that one. My friend's 2000 TC has that problem.

I haven't had air in a long time, didn't know the clock spring and air ride were inter-related

Both cruise and horn work. So theres a switch under the seat that could go bad? Does the seat have to be removed to get to it?

Air bag not air ride.

It's the air bag warning light. You know the SRS.

You can see the plug-in bit from just looking under the seat. It's a yellow wire I think. This is all memory, I'll see if I can find the docs.
