So today I was driving into a parking lot, at a normal speed, which is separated from the road by a normal gutter. It turned out to be deeper than average, not big enough to bottom out or anything, but now the air bag light turns on and now reads "service air bag" on start up. Is this something serious or just a loose wire or sensor? 09TC if it helps =/

 

i have a 09 tc, when i was camping for a weekend got my car stuck in the mud twice then didnt move it for 2 days, when i started it, it said this. im like thats not good, i honked the horn a few times shut off the car and turned it back on and it was gone.

 

just do a air bag delete solves the problem

 

I had my car sit for 6 weeks while I was in Texas. Came home and it was hard to start and I had the air bag light on...shut it off and turned on a couple times before it went away. I don't know why it happens...

 

I have an 09 turbo. Had service airbag message. Took it to local chevy dealer. The code was B0012
(02) Drivers air bag. They removed air bag module, found poor terminal tension at connector. Repaired pin tension and drivers air bag connector. Reconnected and seated termiinal CPA. Cleared codes. Test drive for several miles. Probably fixed. This work was done 3 weeks ago.

I tried fixing it myself by cleaning various connectors. The problem would go away for a few days then I'd get the service airbag message.

 

check the electrical connections underneath the seats.. i shoved something up under my passenger seat which somehow unplugged one of those sensors.. set off my service airbag light..

 

i have the same prob. checked under my passenger seats still nothing, all connectors are connected. i amm going to try honking the horn though and se if that works. im overseas. and i cant get anything covered under warranty here. and my MOT inspection is comin up and if i dont get this fixed i cant drive my car

 

Thanks for the help everyone, it turned out to just be a loose seat belt sensor.
