SRS indicator confusion...
 

When IGN is ON, SRS indicator normally lights up and turns off after a few seconds.

When I have a passenger, like my gf, the indicator is a bit erratic. I notice the indicator continues to light up longer than usual, and then turns off. Sometimes it's normal as well.

So tonight I did a test. I turned IGN to ON, and the SRS indicator lit up and turned off as usual. Then I pressed down on the seat cushion and released it, the SRS indicator turned on for a few seconds and turned off.

So I'm wondering if there is a possible intermittent issue with the seat sensor. :confused:

indicator probs..
 

I have had similar problems with my 5 year old son. with a booster seat, the indicator light stays off even if he's sitting in it. Without the booster seat, the light stays lit when he sits in it. Obviously, the issue makes me nervous. :confused:

The sensor is weight sensitive. The new generation airbags use this smart sensors to distinguish wether there is a small child in the seat to deactivate airbag deployment in case of an accident some sensor might be over sensitive to a petite adult and airbag deployment may not occur if you have erratic readings please have it checked at your dealer you don't want to find a fault when you least expect it.

I have to get mine checked as well. My wife weighs 125lbs and when she's in the seat, the light stays lit indicating the airbag is off.

Yup, I got real confused. The indicator appears normal when no one's around. With her sitting in the seat, it becomes a bit erratic and takes longer for it to go away.
