You would have to take it to a Ford dealership so they could diagnose why the airbag light is on. It is not something that you would want to do yourself.
The airbag light stays on when the computer detects a malfunction and sets a code.
There is not much chance that your airbag would malfunction and just deploy, but if the airbag light is on there is a 100% chance that it will not operate properly in the event of an accident. You need to have the car inspected at a dealer or certified repair shop if the airbag light is on and remains on.
Airbag light is on the bottom right hand corner of the instrument cluster. To roll down the window you have to have the key in the on position, the accesories position does not work.
The airbag light stays on when the airbag computer detects a malfunction and sets a code. You need to have the system checked for codes to know possible causes.
There are pages of codes for the airbag system. You need to have it checked for codes by a qualified mechanic as airbag systems are not a do it yourself system.
if your airbag light is on it tells that something is wrong with the module, sensors, or clock spring..in order to find out what is the problem you would have to pay for the diagnostic, usually they charge about 70$. After they replaced they have to reset the airbag light. I would've buy one of those airbag reset tools online for about 50-100$ and do it myself saving hundreds.
Reset the light. Turn everything off. Turn the key on and off when the light just goes off. Keep doing this several times, the light will reset
If the cause of the code was fixed the light would have gone off on its own.
The light is on because there is a fault in the system. It would be best to have the professionals take a look at it.
