Hello! I have a 2008 Lexus IS250 with 120,000 miles. The air bag dash light flashed on/off for maybe a month or so. Now it just stays on. I purchased the BlueDriver this weekend. No codes reported. Everything is great. So...what gives? I've crawled under the seats the best that I can to check if something has been disconnected or come loose but I can't tell. With no code reporting what do you think? Thanks! Tomette
Try to visit your local auto parts store & have them scan the car for free. Post back the results. Maybe you need a higher level scan tool, although BlueDriver says it’s able to read airbag codes.
I'll have it scanned and post back. That's why I specifically bought the BlueDriver...for the airbag codes. I'll let you know. Thanks.
Some of the smaller scanners like blue driver don’t show airbag issues. Example the passenger presence system in mine the sensor is bad, I have one to replace it, but my smaller AP200 autel never showed a problem. I bought the Autel MK808 and it goes farther and reports the problem. I would have an automotive shop or parts place with a better scanner check it. Blue driver is a good system for DYI peeps but it does have limitations. Also run your VIN on the national recall search. You might have an airbag thats been recalled in that Takata mess.

Clockspring in the steering wheel is a common cause of airbag faults.
