  3. Damaged airbag wiring
  4. Faulty airbag control module

Serious · drive with care

The car can be driven, but the airbag may not work in a crash. Have the airbag system diagnosed promptly by a qualified technician; do not try to repair airbag circuits yourself.

This page gives general information. It is not professional advice. For a definite diagnosis and a repair quote, ask a qualified mechanic to inspect the car.
