I have had the same problem with my 2000 Beetle. The only way to reset is to have the dealer do it. so far they have replaces the wiring harness in the drivers seat for the side airbags and several other components under the drivers seat. It seems to be a problem only when the seat is moved. One mechanic says the seat is moved too much( that is crazy i think) I realize it sounds a bit nuts but i have been dealing with the airbag light in and out of the dealer since I purchased it in 2003. Good luck with that one. If the light is on it will not pass a safety for resale. I would suggest trade it in you will get no where with Volkswagen.
if you mean turn signals not returning to neutral (turning off automatically) it is called a clock spring and requires the removal of the airbag and some steering components to replace. If I remember right the part was $150 or so. I was told this was a common problem.
The clockspring is the part that turns your turn signals off when the turn is completed or that warns you if your turn signals have stayed on too long. It also serves as the conduit electrically to activate your drivers side airbag in a crash. If your turn signals do not turn off the clockspring is probably the problem. If you get an airbag light that stays on all the time it COULDbe the clockspring but could also be something else in the circuit as well.
Problem with the SRS. Take it to a dealer for repair. the airbags may or may not be working.
You don't. The light is on because there is a problem and will remain on until the problem is fixed. When the problem is fixed the light will go out by itself. As long as the airbag light is on the airbag won't function if needed. A common problem with an older vehicle is the "clock spring" goes bad. All or some of the electrical items located in the steering wheel like the horn, cruise control and airbag stop working when the "clock spring" fails.
It is on because there is a problem with the SRS. Take it to a professional, as working on the SRS is dangerous and not a DIY job.
The airbag light in a 1995 262 will come on when there is an airbag circuit problem. The airbag will not work right in the event of a crash unless the problem is fixed.
The light come on when the system detects a problem and sets a trouble code. You should have it diagnosed by a trained technician. The airbag system is not for do it yourselfers.
There is a problem with the SRS. Working on this system can be very hazardous, so take it to a professional for repair.
The airbag (SRS) light is on because there is a problem with the system. Due to the fact that working on this system can be hazardous I recommend you have it repaired by a professional. He will reset the light once the system is repaired.
NO, the SRS light is on because there is a problem with the air bags. Take it to a professional for repair. This is NOT a DIY repair. Working with the SRS is dangerous.
