Air Bag Light Flashing, How to diagnose and fix

Airbag light on or airbag light flashing? This video will show you how to diagnose and fix a flashing airbag light. The flashing means that there is a fault with the system. You can read the number of flashes and it will give you a code (codes listed below for ford ranger and Mazda B3000). If your code is not listed, just google the year, make and model of your car along with "airbag light code" (ex. 2001 Mazda B3000 airbag light code).
In this case it was code 4-6 which is the drivers side seat-belt pretensioner circuit which is cause by the wire/clip under the seat coming loose or getting moisture in it. Just separate the clip and spray some wd40 or electric cleaner in there and reconnect.
Ford Ranger, Ford Explorer, Mazda B3000 Airbag codes (2000-2005)
15- drivers side air bag circuit shorted
16- passenger side air bag circuit shorted
19- restraint control module (RCM) memory full
24- restraint control module (RCM) internal fault
25- passenger air bag deactivation (PAD) switch fault
27- passenger air bag deactivation (PAD) warning lamp inoperative
29- Incorrect Vehicle Identification Code
32- driver air bag circuit resistance high
33- passenger air bag circuit resistance high
34- driver air bag circuit resistance low
35- passenger air bag circuit resistance low
43- front impact sensor
46- drivers side seat-belt pretensioner
47- passenger side seat-belt pretensioner

The best car purchasing choice I ever made was buying a truck that is the same make, model, and year of truck as ChrisFix. My son let me know the airbag light was blinking, this video is the first hit on Google, turned out to be code 46, popped the connector out,wouldn't you know the pins had corrosion, a little WD-40 and a metal nail file cleaned them up, plug it back in, the light is off. Simple 2 minute fix. Thanks so much!!

[@onebrokenwriter]

Oh my goodness, I can't thank you enough for this! I did it! I fixed it! The code was 4-7, passenger side. Found the connector easily, pulled it out, WD40'd it (took a minute to also lube the hinges on the kitchen door to the garage), reconnected it and started the truck--and it's fixed! Thank you, thank you. My go-to auto repair shop had told me on the phone, "Ohhh, we don't fix those. You'll have to go to the dealer." No, no, no. All fixed now. Smiley face! (Demographic: I am a female, retired, over age 60.)

[@chrisfix]

Awesome!!! I am glad the video was helpful and nice work Kay!

[@dabcorn]

wd40 is not good as a regular "lubricant" - it is a 'water-displacement' and rust penetrating solvent. Use another petroleum distilate, silicone or other synthetic lube for lubricating purposes.

Chris, Thanks very much. Yesterday, I called Ford for an appointment for the air-bag fault that has been going on for a number of years. So I watched your video and then went out to the 2000 Ranger and read the code as 27, replace the light bulb. That's an easy fix and saved me the hassle of appointment, waiting, probably $200 and time wasted. This was awesome. Thanks again. Mark

[@Mike604]

Swapped WRX seats on my Subaru Impreza and had airbag lights. Read 15+ forums and no one had a clear solution. Did this and it works. Thanks so much!

[@chrisfix]

Awesome!!! Make sure you update your forum post with the solution so others can also fix their car!

[@brionphy3212]

Fantastic!! I have a 2002 Ford Ranger Edge and the airbag light started flashing about six months ago but quit after a few days. Yesterday it started flashing again and you would not believe some of the prices I was given as a guesstimate. I did what you said and the code was 47, which you also said was the passenger seat connector. I unplugged it and sprayed it and the light went off and stayed off. I can't thank you enough for sharing your knowledge with everyone. You have a dedicated follower from this point forward. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!!

[@rubenugartejr.5020]

I have the same ranger and habe three dame code. I sprayed it but the light is still on. Did your connector have 2 pin or 4 pins. Mine only had 2 pins. But my driver side had 4 pins. Are my pins broken?

[@jman9816]

I stopped today and confirmed that a flashing airbag light cannot be scanned through the OBD port at Advance Auto to determine the issue. Came home and found this video had a 47 code on my 2000 Ford Taurus-probably the same V6 engine as this Mazda truck. I tried using WD40 as recommended in the video and it worked like a charm! Thank you.

[@kevinhiggins957]

Thanks Chris. I had code 47 on my 2002 Ranger. Opened the connection under the passenger seat, sprayed in some contact cleaner and the airbag light cleared. You give some great tips and have helped me out several times. Great site.

[@chrisfix]

+Tran Ly for some reason I cannot reply to your question so I hope you see this. The connector might be corroded or coming loose for the side curtan airbags (just like the connector under my seats).The connector is behind the C pillar interior trim (rearmost roof pillar, next to rear window) on a 4 door car. The connector should be behind the side bolster of the rear seat on a 2 door car. 2 wire connector, and SRS wiring has yellow everywhere.Be careful when working with the airbag system and make sure you remove the negative terminal of the battery and wait at least 10min. My guess is that if you unplug and reconnect the wire harness connector you can fix the problem.

[@Slash94995]

Got it. So removing the negative terminal of the battery is before or after I've unplugged the connector?

[@chrisfix]

before you do anything, remove the negative terminal and let it sit for 10min then you should be safe.

[@chrisfix]

***** There is no resetting an airbag light. You need to fix the problem. Try what I did in this video for both the drivers and passengers side seats.

[@chrisfix]

***** You will need to get the computer scanned because there is no code that I know of. Check the connectors under the seats because it is a common problem.

[@muncie101fy]

Ok cheers

[@leetaylor6566]

I'm amazed! I know nothing about cars/trucks. I have a 2001 Ford Ranger and the airbag light was flashing and I didn't have the manual. I watched the video and followed the procedure with the WD-40. And instantly the airbag light stopped flashing. I'm so proud of myself for fixing it without asking someone else for help. Thanks, Lee T.

Hi I'm getting code 19 on my 2000 Mazda b3000. My airbags deployed after a minor bumper to bumper. I have not done anything to them except just tear the airbags out. Without going to the dealer or mechanic how do I reset the airbag light ? What is code 19?

[@chrisfix]

Because your airbags deployed the computer in the car called the Restrain Control Module memory is full. You need to get a new one. It is located right above the cup holders and under the radio where the passenger airbag switch is located. Always buy new when messing with the airbag system and dont go to a junkyard.

You saved me $$$ and more importantly time (losing my car for a day at the repair shop). Besides, I'm sure the repair shop would have done exactly the same thing, or actually worse; replaced the whole wiring harness or the belt pre-tensioner sensor and charged me $250 in parts (+labor).

[@jeffreygleaves2931]

@@brucehampton1545 There should be some wires running up to the seat to signal the seat belts n' such. Follow them down til you find a plug. Should be one on both sides. There should be a plug because the seats might have to be removed for whatever reason. Mine was right under the drivers seat. Can't say where it is on a 2000 but it can't be too far off. One squirt of WD40 and that light went right off. I was amazed! I had been putting up with that airbag light for years! I still can't figure out what that plug has to do with the airbag. It seems an airbag light would mean the airbag is broken. Not complaining though.

2003 Ford Ranger XLT. Trying to replace dome light bulbs to LED resulted in a spark at at the connections. Now the dome light is inoperable.Then, noticed the air bag illumination lamp on. Related? Hooked up to same relay? I know there's a relay box under the driver side dash. Never a problem with the air bag light until the dome light issue. Code is "2-9"

[@chrisfix]

Jason Ricci The spark is because the light had power to it when you were trying to connect the bulb. It is probably a fuse that blew. Code 29 is the Incorrect Vehicle Identification Code error. It is strange that happened. YOu might want to check the fuses and maybe pull the negative terminal on the battery for 10min (as you change the bulb would be a good time). Double check it is code 2-9.

Good point also about leaving the battery disconnected for 10 minutes before working on that connector. Thanks. I'll let you know what happens.

all if this doesn't work.... look under the seat belt buckle on driver's side. There is a black plug or connector that connects straight into the pretentioner. I tried what this video suggested and no luck. Then took wd40 and sprayed the connecter under seat belt buckle. Worked like a charm!

Awesome trick man. Got a Miata with a clogged roof drain (convertible people know about this) and the airbag light just came on. One problem created another and now I know how to fix them both. Thanks.

[@chrisfix]

Awesome! Glad the video was helpful!

[@brianbahnsen7427]

Thanks Chris! Just had my vehicle detailed and now got a 33 flash code. Now I think I can fix myself, without spending money to get repaired.

[@TheAck201]

Did you fix it ??

[@brianbahnsen7427]

@@TheAck201 No. But I did decipher the code to the passenger side (33). The fix did not resolve my issue though.

[@TheAck201]

@@brianbahnsen7427 good luck to you

[@MrMando9909]

fixed my light literally 5 seconds after watching this 👍👍👍

[@ari10952]

Did you disconnect the battery?

Just fixed my 2001 ford ranger code 47, can't thank you enough.

[@MarkRowsey]

Thank you sir! You just saved me an hour of my time going to Pep Boys and possibly a lot of money. Got code 47 in my 2004 Tribute. This video worked!

[@brucehampton1545]

Why did going to pep boys save you money?

[@MarkRowsey]

@@brucehampton1545 Gosh! This was forever ago. I think I just sprayed some WD40 on it and it was good to go. Didn't have to buy any parts.

[@thereisabattleforyoursoulj3787]

Finally somebody clear. Thank you so much. Thank you!!!!!! You did help me.

[@davidschiff1851]

Code 27 and the light doesn't work on my passenger airbag! Now I know the problem. Great video, thanks!

[@eds5881]

A Big THANK YOU. My airbag light came on yesterday on my 02 Ford Ranger. I did this and it fixed it.

[@car24dude]

My parents had the same problem on a different vehicle. The deal wanted to charge over $400 prepay to replace the seat belt pre tensioner with no guarantees. We was gonna trade in the vehicle for a new one, but I used your method to fix it. Do I thank you for saving us money for not buy a new car? Or do I blame you because the car is fixed and we can’t enjoy driving a new car? Thank you so very much ❤

[@BrenSmith05]

Who knew that 8 years later i would use this video to fix the same code on my truck

[@rpc1297]

Thank you! You were dead on and with only a squirt of WD40, it's fixed. Magic!

[@PamWright-zo3bm]

Thanks Chris did not realize it was a code now i got a better grip on problem

[@sandeepnaicker4051]

Bro had this issue for a long time on my Nissan b15 it worked mate u saved me money and time thanks really appreciate what u are doing.

[@scottguthrie8074]

Thanks dude! That has to be the answer we were cleaning behind the seats and moving them back and forward pretty strongly!

[@SeventhAlkali]

Thanks! Saved $200 just by unplugging and plugging in the connector.

[@chrisfix]

Glad the video was helpful!

[@jackhorder]
