|  What makes the airbag warning light come on ? Airbag warning light came on continuously after starting up today. Don't know if this is a co-incidence but..... could this be related to me changing all the headlight bulbs last night ? Attempted to remove the headlamp unit (remove knurled **** and released the catch) but could not manage to remove units from the car, so changed lamps in situ. Don't know if I managed to dislodge a sensor at the front of the car or something. Any thoughts ? Russell |

| Re: What makes the airbag warning light come on ? If it's one of the earlier cars there was a problem with the connectors under the seats - Moving the seats will often cause the problem. A fix has been released and can be performed by your dealer.

| Re: What makes the airbag warning light come on ? Thanks for the info Stu. Looks like a (first) visit to my local dealer is called for. I some how thought the car might last longer than a week before breaking on me  |
