The warning light is telling you that the SRS is seeing a fault with
one of the impact sensors, most likely. By ignoring this (or just resetting) you are compromising your safety if you are involved in a crash. Take it in and have them extract the fault code. Chances are... it won't be a very expensive thing to fix anyway. Professor www.telstar-electronics.com |

This happened to me in 2001. I also replaced the battery, which did not
solve the problem. I had to replace the SRS control unit. The charge was $688. I had bought the car in 1999 used from a dealer and had also purchased an extended warranty for $500. Lucky for me the replacement of the SRS unit was covered by the warranty. |
