I do not think so. I presume your light will not go out.

The only airbag sensor is located in the airbag module (controller). Every other airbag connection is monitored for sort or open circuits

My theory is the tester sat in the drivers seat during the test and twisted round in such a way to make the seat sensor or its wiring fail. You could check for an loose connector under the drivers seat. However to extinguish the light the faults will have to be cleared by an airbag scan tool.

Will the knock sensor cause A car to fail a smog test?

Yes. Any faulty emissions control sensor, including knock sensors, will result in an automatic fail of any emissions control test, period. It doesn't even matter if your vehicle's actual exhaust emissions are within acceptable limits. In most cases, once it is determined that a sensor is bad, the test is ended immediately, and considered failed.

Does emissions test effect Check Engine Light on Ford Explorer?

No an emissions test will not affect the check engine light. However an emissions test cannot be performed while the check engine light is on, you will have to repair whatever is wrong with the vehicle before it can be done. Simply resetting it wont work either as the system will have to complete several (7 or 8) emissions readiness tests before it can be done and whatever is wrong will most likely reappear by then.

Why does Vt commodore airbag sensor light appear after starting?

The reason the Airbag light comes on after starting the car is because the system detects a fault or error with the Air Bag (SRS) system. It could be that the Seatbelt pretensioner or one of the airbags is faulty. It could also be the Airbag Module/Sensor itself. The only easy way to test is to either be handy with cars and have a 2nd commodore with the same setup (ie. same model commodore) or to take it to Holden to get them to look at it. Airbag parts are expensive and the module/sensor itself is around $400 from holden. they will charge an extra $100-200 extra to fit it. When that light is on it means that the airbag system will not function in the event of a crash. (Not good).
