i tried fooling with a 07 sti today and for some reason my SRS light went on...anyone know why or what it could be

 

check the seat belt it has a srs sensor on the b piller

 

anyone else have some feedback

 

mine also went on today after I washed it in my garage . Maybe its cause its so cold out? I also just hit 50000 miles

 

i havent even hit 13,000 miles....shouldnt be happening

 

richevo26, my srs light has been on for a while too and your thread made me look into the 2003 evoviii manual. The srs sytem looks pretty big, it has its own ecu and trouble codes. if you want to pm me your e-mail address i can send you a file of the SRS chapter. unless you know another way for me to post it up.

 

Mine is also on but that's cause I had an electrical problem and the mechanic was messing with the electrical system although he says that he never touched anything related to the SRS system.

Have you tried disconnecting and connecting again the battery cables???

 

This will not work even if you leave a battery off for a year. SRS got its own separate computer that got Lithium battery that will last a long time. Your airbags are off right now as long as your SRS light is on.

If your light came on then there is a problem in your SRS system. If your car under warranty then just take it to a dealer and they should take car of it. Automotive shop could reset it if they got Snap-On scanner with Airbag system upgrades. I just reset mine because i had to replaced seat belts.

 

^Yeah I need to call the mechanic this week to reset the SRS system.

 

Maybe Vato-Zone can reset your code for you. I know they scan your car for free when you have a CEL and as long as it is an OBD2.

 

My wife's VW has the SRS light on as well and the dealership wanted to charge some outrageous amount just to reset the damn thing. They said it would still operate if an accident occurred so I told them no thanks.

 

this is it 100% sure... i have same poblem. i went to dealer thats what it was, cleared the code, stayed off for 2 days, came back on. now have to take to dealer to get that seatbelt explosive device thing replaced.

 

mine is on too. my car had been sitting for like 6 months and i drove it the other day finally and the light is on now. anyone figure out how to turn it off?

 

Well this happend to my 2 days ago i was driveing and i did little hard brakeing so my ABS kicked in and my SRS light went on ? how to turn it of ?

 

Bump. My car sat for the first time in a snow storm. After all the snow melted and I started the car this morning, the SRS light came on. Damn it!

I'll see if it's still on when I come home from work.
