Reset Airbag light?

by **thefarewellnote** » Fri Apr 04, 2008 6:46 am

I recently had an AVIC d3 installed in my car and since then the car's airbag light has been flashing non stop. THe installer told me that it just need to be reset either by myself or by the dealer.

Anyone know how to reset it

Thanks?

yes, its on the forum, but would take a bit of searching to find... I suggested that our moderator Tyler place this info on the Read First page but......

push the ignition from OFF to ON
the air bag warning light will appear for about 7 seconds and turns off.
then push igniition switch OFF immediately.
after ignition switch is turned OFF, wait for about 6 seconds.

after you REPEAT THE PROCEDURE 3 TIMES, push the ignition switch ON, this time the ABS warning light has been reset.
step on the brake and push the button to start the car. turn the ignition off and start the car. Hope this will help. I did this procedure to my car and it works.
