Airbag Repairs – Gosport

Your airbag system is one of the most important safety features in your vehicle. In the event of a collision, it works in fractions of a second and when it isn’t functioning correctly, that protection simply isn’t there. If your airbag warning light is on, it needs to be investigated promptly.

An illuminated airbag light doesn’t always mean the airbag itself is faulty. It indicates a fault somewhere within the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), which includes airbags, seatbelt pretensioners, and the control module. Accurate diagnostics are essential to identifying exactly where the problem lies.

Common Causes of Airbag Warning Lights

Faulty or damaged clock spring (common after steering wheel work)
Seatbelt pretensioner fault
SRS control module issue
Wiring fault or damaged sensor
Airbag previously deployed and not correctly reset
Low battery voltage triggering a system fault

What We Do

At RCJ Automotive, we use professional diagnostic equipment to read SRS fault codes and identify the root cause accurately. Once the fault is found, we’ll explain exactly what’s needed and carry out the repair correctly, including any necessary system resets.

Don’t Drive With the Airbag Light On

A vehicle with an active airbag warning light may have airbags that won’t deploy in a collision, or in rare cases, could even deploy unexpectedly. Either way, it’s not a warning to dismiss. If your airbag light is showing, get it checked at RCJ Automotive in Gosport as soon as possible.
