My car was in an accident once and the airbag went off. now, my airbag light on my dash won't turn off. well, i dont think it's supposed to be on, at least. i dont know, its weird having that light on. it pulls my attention to it. how do i turn it off?

you need to reset it. Try taking off the neg battery termanil and waiting 10 seconds. If that doesn't work I *think* a toyota dealership has to reset it.

the other solution, pull out the cluster and pull the bulb = no more annoying light.

yea i got into an accident and airbags went off
its supposed to stay on because the sensor (in the front of the car sumwhere) was never replaced and i don't plan on replacing it although that might mean the bags don't come out but oh well for inspection sake i'm removing that gay bulb |
