Airbag Light On (Not Flashing)




Simple as that my airbag light is on and my front seat belts are locked. Car was once wrecked but the damage was repaired along with the driver airbag which was the only one that deployed. I've ordered new seatbelts already. I just need to figure out the cause for the air bag light and repair it before I take it in for inspection.

That is the next thing on my list. Could the car be driven without the control module. Not as in daily driving. I mean on to a trailer. (Don't have a winch)

You could drive the car as is with the airbag light on. I have been driving with the airbag light on in my Grand Prix for several years now. I have no desire to pay GM to scan it, and I am not a fan of airbags anyway. Wear your seatbelt, and you'll be good.

I have to die to the car having a salvage title. I have to get it inspected before I get the rebuilt title.

You can turn the airbag light off yourself - There are couple of youtube videos on it

I know I turned it off on my g35 sedan just messing with the key fob

You only asked if you could drive the car with the light on, and the answer is yes, you can drive it with the light on.

I need to proofread before I send. But what I mean is can the car be driven without the airbag module installed? I sent the module to Safety Restore this afternoon.
