The air bag light is on on both of the tibs, has been since I bought them..
How do I know if it is because the dash was taken apart without the battery disconnected (or whatever that error is, both cars HAD an alarm system before I bought them, but it was removed) or if the airbags were actually deployed in either of them? How would I know?

If you take it to the dealership they can check the system out. If it's good they will reset it.

If you want to see what it looks like, remove your instrument cluster with the battery still connected, turn the key on, then reinstall the cluster. tongue.gif Then you have to take it to the dealership and pay around $50 to get it reset.

WTF happened to my poll?
So the dealer will check to see if the airbags have been deployed or not, if all the wiring is correct etc.?

mine's been on for the last 2 months or so too.... and i've owned the car for almost 2 years.

java's right...... it's all about the wiring and prog. stuff, i believe

either way, it's definately not a new thing. i just phuck with my car a lot (like most of us here.....), so i expect to see that kind of shit.

that's how you learn.

mine DID come on inadvertantly though, so i don't know what's up. let me know whay they say when you get it fixed.
