My 2014 F150 air bag light all of a sudden came on. It is not the one affected by the recall for the passenger side..... A normal code reader will not even show the fault.. Ford dealer says to bring it in and leave it for a week!! "These things are hard to diagnose could be multiple switches or the control module"....
Anyway I cant give up my truck for a week... unless absolutely necessary. I have checked the connector to the impact module that is in front of the radiator (to the side of). This was an issue on older F150's.... Any hints on other things to check? I have moved the seats, bounced on the seat, pulled the seat belts, etc....

Help

 

I recommend checking all of the connectors, not just one.

All it takes it for something to get loose.

Also, an airbag light isn't the end of the world. You can wait until you get time to fix it.

 

I guess I should have been more clear... does anyone know where the other sensors are? I am hoping it is a loose connection....
I am assuming if the light is on I have NO airbag protection..... the system will not work in a crash.. not something I must have but would be nice!@!!!!

 

I would start by looking under the seats and the seat belt pretensioner.

Again, these are suggestions.

Unfortunately, the best way to diagnose this one, is to get the SRS system codes checked. Ford can do it, along with some regular auto shops. Sometimes Autozone or AdvanceAuto has the advanced scanners. Depends on the store owner.

This way you know exactly where to look instead of wasting your time.

 

FIXED??? My light is off but I don't know for sure why... I have a supercab and just for the heck of it, I opened the back door on the driver side and checked the belt, at the attachment point, at the bottom of the door. There is nothing there but a steel "eye". In order to get access that I had to push up on the rubber boot. That was all I did and then closed the door, Now the light it out and Apparently I have air bags!! lol Not too anxious to try them out but feel a little safer..

 

Now that you know where it is, keep an eye on it. If it gives trouble down the line, take it apart and examine.
