Hi,
Just changed the battery and now the airbag warning light is on continuiously. Tried to be really careful changing battery, used spare battery to keep voltage on system so I wouldn't lose any settings but now this. Airbag light flashes off for a second when ignition first turns on then back on. Is it another trip to the stealer or does anyone know a fix.
Many Thanks

Disconnect the battery for 10 minutes then re-connect, nothing to lose and might just cause a reset.
The SRS light should reset unless there is a hard fault.

In future - try and keep power to the electrics whilst changing the battery.

Re read it, that's what he said he did. It should be possible to remove and replace the battery without a problem. I do it all the time with my spares dog that lives with out a battery, it's never caused a problem.
