My passenger side airbag deployed, how do I get the SRS / Airbag light to go off. 2001 Honda Civic DX?
Posted by admin
The airbag light stays on when I start the car, is there anyway to get the light turned off. I still have a driver side airbag, so if I tamper with the light for the passenger side, will it affect my drivers side airbag. thank you
YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THE AIR BAG THAT DEPLOYED ,THE CRASH SENSOR,AND POSSIBLY THE MODULE,BY NO MEANS DO NOT TAMPER WITH THE AIR BAG YOU COULD BE SERIOUSLY HURT!!!!LEAVE IT FOR THE PROFESIONALS,YOU CAN STILL DRIVE IT WITH THE LIGHT ON IT JUST MEANS THE SISTEM IS DEACTIVATED UNTIL REPAIRS ARE PERFORMED.

It has detected a deployment so you need to replace the deployed bag. Only a service center, Body SHop or Dealer can do this work

Thats really odd that the passenger side went off but not the drivers. To turn the light off you will have to replace the air bag and the air bag computer controller. The system can tell the passenger side airbag is deployed and will continue to light the airbag light untill the pieces of the system that have been activated are replaced. You currently have no air bag system. If you were in a crash your drivers side airbag will not work now. You should get the system serviced. You can find parts at a discount on ebay but you will need a qualified person to install them. If your just annoyed by the light, put a piece of black tape over the area where the light is located.

You need a scanner that can access your air bag system to reset the PCM .

With the "air bag" light on, nothing will deploy (this doesn’t mean the driver side can’t, it is still considered a potential hazard) but as mentioned before, why didn’t it? To get the system back to working order, you are looking at a lot of money, crash sensors, SRS module, Passenger side air bag, a complete diagnoses to find out why the drivers side did not go off, and any thing else that might pop up (no pun intended)
