Service Airbag message?
Hi,
I have a 2012 Camaro 2LT/RS and just today i got a "Service Airbag" message on the DIC when I started up the car. I looked throughout the forum to try and pinpoint the exact problem, but none really matched what I've experienced. I never have any passengers in my car, so my passenger airbag light is off. I haven't moved my seating position at all on both driver and passenger seats for months, so I highly doubt its wire-related. However, some say that there's an airbag sensor or module located in the dash that may be the cause of this problem. Recently since about 2 months ago, I've noticed this rattle-like tap sound right in the middle of my dash. It sounds as if it is coming from behind the stereo head unit and inside the dash. I was wondering maybe this sound I'm hearing could be a loose or damaged airbag sensor that is causing my car to give me this "Service Airbag" message. Any suggestions?

Airbag Sensor
Hi there, I had the same issue.
The first time my passenger sat down and moved the seat it triggered the sensor. I fiddled around with the cables underneath and got lucky enough that is stopped. But only for 2 weeks then popped again. Then went to the dealership for service and they "Fixed" the problem. Well they fixed it for a few months anyway. My wife sat down in the passenger seat last night and the airbag sensor went again. This is getting to be frustrating! Should I pull a fuse and reset or keep scheduling my car for warranty service every month or two? Cheers from Portland! |

I got this resolved. Thanks for those who replied.
The dealer said they just reprogrammed the computer. No more service airbag messages now!

its a wiring issue, actually a connector issue, the harness was put together too tight at connectors and over time the wiring stretches in the connectors. I have found the connectors in the backs of the seat to be the culprits. If the techs probe the wires they test ok its only if you pull it apart and LOOK at the wiring that you see the problem. I have simply moved the harness a little and problem is gone for good.
