What happen when your Car’s Airbag Light is on?


Car Airbag Light is on

Supplemental restraint system (SRS) light – or airbag light – is a warning sign that alerts the driver to check your car. With all the lights on your dashboard, it can be very tempting to ignore one, thinking that it is not a big deal. The computerized system is responsible for moving airbags as well as tightening the seat belts to keep passengers safe in the situation.

If the airbag light turns on while driving, or stays for longer after starting up, it’s best to take the car to a garage in Gurgaon as soon as possible to be properly checked.

  A common reason air bag lights on is because something is interfering with the seat belt switch. The sensor which detects if the belt is properly fastened can trigger a false warning light related to the air bags.

 

  Another for the air bag is a damaged clock spring. The clock spring is a rotary electrical connector that allows the steering wheel to turn but still keeps a connection between the wheel’s air bag, horn and the electrical system. If the clock spring isn’t working, the airbag won’t deploy and you should replaced it by a professional car garage in Gurgaon.

 

  Another reason the air bag or SRS light comes on is because the car may have been in an accident that make the car’s crash sensors but, perhaps, not to the point of deploying the air bag. In these cases, the air bag needs to be properly changed.
