AirBag Dash Light
So yesterday while driving home from work I heard the chime noise and looking at my dash the Airbag light was on. I chalked it up to a one off but today it happened a number of times. 90% of them while on rough gravel roads. Logically there's a loose connector somewhere.. after googling I found out from others to look under the front seats and check the big connector at the base of teh dash on the hump/tunnel.
So the one connector under the drivers seat was tight. No connectors under teh passenger seats (seems I dont have the sensor that disables that airbag when teh seat is empty), and the big tunnel connector was all tight too.
Next I thought about checking the big impact sensor behind teh front bumper... wait, I dont have one.
On every single vehicle i've ever had with airbags there's always been a big yellow housing right on teh back side of teh front bumper... should I have one but its just missing?
Any advice for helping to find the loose culprit?
