Airbag Light Code P0153

[Mussolini1996]

So I took apart my dash to see if I needed to replace the airbag bulb, and to my "surprise" there wasn't even a bulb there, so I put one in. Now my airbag light won't stay off. So I scanned the computer and the code I get is P0153 Circuit Slow (Bank 2 Sensor 1).

Does anyone now how to even attempt to remedy this problem??? Does the "P" possibly stand for passenger???

That's not an airbag code, that's a lazy oxygen sensor code.

That's an O2 sensor code.

The airbag system is completely separate from the OBD module so you cant read airbag codes with a scanner. When you start the car the airbag light will blink several times and if there is a problem it will then stay solid. The blinking is the airbag system displaying a 2 digit trouble code. It will blink a few times then pause, then blink a few more, then there will be a longer pause after which it will repeat the process. It will do this 5 or 6 times. Just count the blinks and write them down to get the code.
