Subject: Disconnecting the battery won't cause the airbag light to illuminate (m) Author: DavidC (moderator) : member since December, 2003 : 12233 posts Posted on: 2004-03-02 01:34:25

In fact, normally that would reset the light. If your light is on constantly, it probably means that there's a problem with the seatbelt tensioner, a loose wiring connection or a problem with the passenger occupancy sensor mat. I don't think that removing the seat will necessarily fix the problem.
