You need to scan the airbag computer for trouble codes. To do that you need a scan tool that will communicate with the airbag computer. A run of the mill code reader won't be able to do that. The trouble code will tell you what is wrong. The airbag computer doesn't store the trouble codes so the airbag light must be on when you scan the system. Hope that helps! Jim
