Hey everybody!

So while driving with the family tonight, my SRS Airbag light started flashing. This is an indication of a fault in the system. I used the procedure I've mentioned in previous posts:

Once in diagnostic mode, I could read the flashes. One long, and 6 short. I got the following table from ClubTitan:

Here's the table for the blink codes that come after a 3 second blink:

0 blinks: Self-diagnosis result is not deleted

1. Front LH seat belt pre-tensioner
2. Driver air bag module
3. Front RH seat belt pre-tensioner
4. N/A
5. Occupant Classification System control unit
6. Crash zone sensor
7. Air bag diagnosis sensor unit
8. Front passenger air bag module
9. N/A
10. N/A
11. Front passenger air bag OFF indicator

If you've removed your OE seats with side airbags and need to check if the SRS error code is related to either passenger or driver side module, the following series of blink codes associated with the 2x 1.5 second SRS light are the ones to look for ( #1 and #2):

Here's the table for the blink codes that come after 2x 1.5 second blink:

1. Front RH side air bag module
2. Front LH side air bag module
3. RH satellite sensor
4. LH satellite sensor
5. RH side curtain air bag module
6. LH side curtain air bag module


So the code I have is for the Crash Zone sensor.

After doing a google search on this, I see there is a recall out there for this part.

Guess I will call the dealer tomorrow and see if they will change it out for me!

Anyone else have this experience?

Thanks

Yup, same thing happened to me a year ago. I went through the same process as you for diagnosing and came to the same conclusion. Contacted dealer and they swapped it out per the recall. Took about an hour. I'm not sure why I was never notified of the recall and it sounds like you weren't either.

Have had a cold snap here of -20C and below. Was able to reset the SRS system without the code 16 reappearing. I would imagine this fault will reappear when it gets slushy out again.

Anybody know if the codes are retained? Or do I need to wait for it to show up again before I take it to the stealership?

A recall doesn't require symptoms so they should fix it regardless.
