Airbag Light On - Hyundai / Kia - Step By Step DIY Fix

In this video I show how I found and fixed the airbag warning light on the dash of a Hyundai i30 - This had a fault code of B134600 Drivers Airbag Resistance Too High (1st Stage)
I show a simple test on how you can check if you have a faulty clockspring / squib looking at live data on your scan tool with zero parts removed.

I have linked in the description the scan tool I used in this video for anyone interested. Using a scan tool for a quick resistance check can be a very effective way to diagnose a fault like this, it eliminates labour time removing parts to test components at different points. **Bear in mind these are general info specs from experience on different vehicles, having exact spec data when testing is always the best option if in any doubt** Thanks for watching, I hope you find the video helpful 👍👍

Love the interaction with your son. Precious moments.

Thanks mate, they are so special. They are growing up so fast 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦😬

[@basilbadra7979]

Writing from Canada. This is a great video Gerard. My 2014 KIA Forte airbag light (intermittently appearing) was diagnosed by KIA garage with code B148100, using a scanner DAB resistance reading 6 ohms and jumps to 11 ohms when turning steering wheel. Part ordered and should get in next week. Meanwhile, I have to sell my shirt to afford making this repair….😢. I never knew of the clock spring until I saw it marked on the invoice and now your video provided an excellent view of what it is all about. Thanks for the great effort. Your son is surely someone to listen to…👍

[@twostroketom]

The usual font of knowledge and wisdom, Ger, any apprentice would be extremely lucky to have you as their mentor. Mind you, looks like you still have a little to learn from the young lad 'Push harder on it to make it open'. 👌😉

[@GerardBurkeBurkesGarage]

That young lad is forever challenging me and making me push harder 🤣😂 I am back to appreciate some days already 😊 Thanks for the kinds words, I truly appreciate it 🙏🙏

Fantastic - thank you Gerard - this is mega helpful. Now I've to order the clockspring! Thank you very much indeed!

[@ldbusiness10]

Thank you... Very informative. My airbag light came on but none of my buttons on the wheel stopped working. I checked my fuses and they were fine. I have an appointment with the dealer next week to fully diagnose the issue. I'm believing that the clock sprung will need to be replaced.

[@jgeorges3061]

AWESOME the way you approach to fix this car by using the scan tool for resistant check is really helped and safe time and ur logic approach is great thanks for taking the time to show all this really appreciated question for you is 2 to 3 ohm universal on all car maker or it is different thanks for sharing brother.cheeeers from CANADA

[@GerardBurkeBurkesGarage]

Thanks very much for the kind words. As for the 2-3 ohms that is the range in this vehicle but is certainly not set in stone on all manufacturers. It is a common range for the system to operate at. If you have manufacturers specs definitely use them or comparison tests to passenger airbag can give you an indication too. There are resistors for testing airbag circuits that can be bought and they are commonly under 3 ohms, Lazer sells one that is 2.5 ohms and I have a couple in my set as well all under 3 ohms. Hope this helps 👌

One thing to add....NEVER check the resistance on an airbag! Not unless you like loud noises, and changing underwear!

[@vladimirjurcsenko8298]

tempomat and cruise control do not work on the steering wheel, the right button does not give out the code but does not work and the airbag light appeared and there is a code B134600 is this the same problem or different? Thanks

Won't be long before Gérard Jnr is at the helm and senior is in the rocking chair, reminiscing about the ould days of cutting the turf, bringing home the hay, the craic on threshing day and early mass on Xmas morning not to mention ploughing the upper field with two shire horses. Don't dare mention Dev Alera. I can see a lot of explaining down the line. Probably think this man is from another planet. Come to think of it, the spring is gone in the grandfather's clock.

[@GerardBurkeBurkesGarage]

🤣🤣🤣 Yes Tom 👌👌

[@SuperTAmbro]

Very informative. Will the airbag still deploy in the event of an accident if the light is on? Cheers from down under.

[@JenniferRodriguez-jd4fe]

Great video Mr. Burke!! We recently changed out the clock spring ourselves on our 2012 Kia Sorento but unfortunately the airbag light is still on... Any suggs would be greatly appreciated sir, thank you in advance!

[@roccomac8943]

Any idea what it could be if the dash light is on, but no code is showing up on the OBD? Tried 2 different scanner tools. Bad light?

[@joejoelowrider]

the clock spring that you use is it an aftermarket? like to know if aftermarket parts are just as good..

[@jasonschannel1315]

I commented on another video of yours I came across on Google I have a 2016 kia soul and when I turn my steering wheel left and right I can hear like something banging not to loud but enough to hear and feel would that issue be my sway bar bushing gone bad. And when driving over bumps because the back roads I live around are very bad.but i hear and feel banging like under my feet could that be the sway bar bushing bad as well. I checked the sway bar links they looked.

I don't have the money for the scan tool. Pretty much ends the discussion there.

Hii I own a Hyundai i30 2009 model in the UK. My main concern is that it burns lots of oil. I don't know what to do. It has 63000 miles on it. It is burning around 1 litre of oil per 300 miles. So can you please help me on what to do. I went to many garages but no one wants to look at it every one says it has engine problem. Please help me I don't wanna sell my car. Kind regards.
