How to Disable the Airbag Warning Light in a PT Cruiser
When the airbag warning light or Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) light illuminates on the PT Cruisers instrument panel, it is because a trouble code is being sent to the On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) computer from a sensor in the SRS. Trouble codes are used to help you pinpoint and troubleshoot problems with your PT Cruiser. You can reset these trouble codes using an OBD scan tool after you have had the airbag system examined and repaired. This hand-held computerized device can be purchased from your dealership or any auto parts retailer.
Instructions
- 1
Locate the OBD port on the drivers side dashboard underneath the steering column.
2Insert the OBD scan tools connector into this port.
3Put the key into the ignition and turn it to the "Run" position. Dont allow the engine to start.
4Wait for the scan tool to interact with the OBD computer. When the codes display on the scan tool, find and select the "Delete Codes" command. The scan tool will return to the main menu or display "OK" when it has finished deleting the codes.
5Unplug the OBD scan tool and start the engine. Check to make sure that the SRS light has shut off on the instrument cluster.
