I recently had my car inspected and it failed because the technician told me that the airbag light was supposed to come on when you turn the ignition switch on. it never lights up I was wondering if its even supposed to and if so how can you fix it???
In VA, it is supposed to come on. I had mine inspected last month (07 Aveo5) so I just went out and checked it. The passenger off light comes on when you turn the key. I think I heard that it is wired to a sensor in the passenger seat, so that when a child, light weight, is sitting in the seat, the airbag is off. If you have no passenger, is your airbag light off lit?. If not, my be the bulb or the sensor.
Nothing lights up anywhere unfortunately, where does the air bag light come on at, I pulled apart the drivers gauge cluster and there is no airbag light located there or check engine, is it part of the clock in the center?
It is in the clock pod Left side .
Here is a pic
I wish mine didn't come on. Mine won't go off.
Hahaha I hear that and thanks for the responses, I ordered another clock, evidently they have quite a few problems. Anyone, know how to disassemble the part of the dash where the clock is I can usually pull up a YouTube video but unfortunately there's nothing on this....
It's an Easy repair, people have posted asking before. Carefully use a screwdriver and pop off the two black trim pieces on either side of the radio. You'll see two screws, above the radio. Remove those, and then pull up on the cover and pull it towards you at the same time. It's stiff since it hasn't moved since assembly at the factory, but it will come off. You'll see two screws that hold the clock/display cluster in place, remove those and unplug it. It can be a pain to undo that connector due to the hot and cold expansion and contracting of the dash literally crimping it. Plug the new one in and reverse this. You're done!!!Originally Posted by firemanbg05
