My airbag light came on the other day. When I did the turning key diagnosis it gave me and error code of 12. How do I fix it.

It looks like code 12 means low battery voltage. Check any related fuses to see if they've blown or if they're looking kind of shaky. Also, get your battery checked out and make sure it's not giving low voltage or something. Do you have any trouble or problems starting the car?

If that all checks out and you're still getting 12, you may need to replace your clock spring. If you end up needing to do that, we can give you a rundown.

It's done this before when it seems to get cold or wet outside

Interesting. So does the code go away on its own when the weather warms up and dries up?

I'd start with getting your battery checked.
