    Air Bag Light

    This morning when I fired up my car, my air bag light continued to blink slowly, until I cycled power. I assume it's a code for something. Thought perhaps my air bag failed a check on startup.

    If it went away, you have an intermittent problem. Generally they flash codes the same way that the check engine light does when you pull codes. Blink blink blink....blink blink

                    no i am talking about just a self test to make sure there are no codes stored in the ecm. Not an airbag test. i know my car wasnt available with an airbag. i dont know where to buy a eec iii test tool for the lousy plug there.
