Passenger airbag status display changed after seat work

A passenger status indication should be described separately from the main airbag fault lamp. Seat work may be relevant, but the correct expected display depends on the vehicle and occupancy conditions.

How to approach the assessment

Follow the owner’s manual concerning seating while the concern is assessed. Do not use weights or objects to manipulate the indication as a repair. A workshop needs to check the installed equipment and any applicable setup requirements.

Useful details to send

  • Which indication changed.
  • Seat or upholstery work.
  • Vehicle handbook information and existing fault report.

Arrange the right assessment

This guide does not establish that a vehicle is safe to use. Restraint repairs need qualified assessment and the correct manufacturer instructions. A module service does not replace required component repairs or vehicle-level verification.

Ask AXION about your repair or read our SRS module assessment information. Workshop visits are by appointment in Didcot. Confirm suitability before posting any removed module.
