[Solved] Toyota Sienna airbag light

   RSS

Topic starter

I've got a 2006 Toyota Sienna 112K miles. This morning when I turned on the car, the airbag light came on and started flashing. I don't have a scan tool, so I do not have the codes. Any ideas on what this could be?

UPDATE: Never mind, I fixed it. Turns out the yellow airbag connector under the passenger seat got loose when I was removing the mats.

Airbag connectors have locking tabs along with another set to double lock them....They should not come off just by pulling on some floor mats...If the connector came loose when hitting a bump. broke connection....the airbag would not deploy...if their was a deployment signal .then what? 

I was moving the seat back and forth to wiggle the mats out and clean the carpet yesterday. My guess is I accidentally hit the yellow connector a few times when I was reaching around for the lever to move the seat. It was still together when the SRS light came on, so I just disconnected it and then clipped it back until I heard a click. When I turned the car back on, the light went away - I drove it for like 45 minutes after that and everything was normal. 

GLAD to hear you got that "CLICK" as it is important for you and anyone in the car. Alright...Happy NEW YEARS!

Thanks! You too!
