SRS Airbag Service 'URGENT' ???

john0968 · Oct 30th, 2009, 12:50

I was driving along adjusting the clock on the dash when all of a sudden this warning came up in the message screen 'SRS Airbag Service 'URGENT''

It seems a bit of a coincidence that it came on as I was adjusting the time, so can't work out if it's a genuine warning, or some sort of 'short' in the electrical system. Has anybody had this happen and what was the remidy?? The airbag service isn't due until Apr 2011, and I was thinking that maybe this is related to the fact my 'Cruise Control' stopped working a couple of months back. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Have a look at the DIM failure posts in the 2000> forum.

Got a diagnostics reading done and it showed an intermitant fault with the offside airbag. Cleared the error message and was ok for a couple of days, but then the error popped up again. No other faults were found on the diagnostics machine, and I was told that maybe the sensor under the drivers seat is faulty!! Could this be the problem? as I can't find any other 'Posts' on the forum to give me an idea of what to do to rectify it.

If your 2000 onwards you'd be best posting a new thread asking for help on the 2000 onwards section
