Haven't seen that, but my sensor keeps lighting up and "air bag is off" on roof by sunnroof with my 120lb wife on the freakin seat. Do I need a fatty next to me or something.

I'm tempted but I might offend the rest of the forum readers.

No, I think I'll let u explain to your immediate family.

Did you unplug the light overhead that says Pass Airbag Off? This will create a fault. If you try to unplug the light because it is annoying you will get this fault. Actually whenever you get this fault code your airbag system is still working but it will deploy all airbags even if someone is not in the pass. seat. This is telling you that the intelligent portion of the system is not working.

Well.. i think i have found the reason for it already.

A few days ago, my friend reversed and knocked the side of my car (at the door). It is just a minor dent, i'm gonna fix it tomorrow though. (he's gonna pay for the repair! ). And probably the side air bag detect the knock on the door which cause some problems to the airbag.
