I took my door panels off and when I plugged them back in the airbag light came on. Does anyone know how to reset this light???? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

yes the same look i had when i saw the light on.. I was told it was because I didnt disconnect the battery prior to uninstalling the panels (side airbags).. but I'm not sure. I guess I'm going to have to bring it to the stealership on Monday.

Dealer (my guess $100 to "diagnose" and clear) :thumbsdown:
Independent mechanic with the right scanner tool (read other members getting it done for about $40-$50)
Buy the Bavarian technic scanner (about $280 but you can can cause and clear all the airbag errors you want!)

. Punishment is now that you have to pay to have the error cleared, lesson learnt. If your unsure ask some one here first.
