airbag

Hi everyone, I am new to the thread and Ford Explorers. It is my first time being an Explorer owner, but I'm already tired of it. When I purchased the vehicle, the catalytic converter needed replacing, and the check engine light came on after a day. Finally, after a month or two, my airbag...

I have several questions. Today My Aerostar would not start I still had battery juice and it didn't even try to crank. My brother told me to touch metal to the starter while cranking well I put metal on the alternator instead it started right up. 1. Could touching metal to top of alternator...

My 07 Mountaineer has the airbag light on, and it's been on for a while now. It started with an intermittent issue where it would come on during the first start of the day and then usually wouldn't come on after that for the whole day. Now it comes on and stays on. There is no flashing so I can...

My airbag light has been solid and on (no flickering) since my aftermarket stereo install 3 days ago. It still has not turned off. Any idea how to reset this light? I don't believe it's a faulty airbag simply because it happened right after swapping out the stock for an aftermarket radio. Is...

Hey guys, did not see any repair threads on this error, so decided to share the knowledge. If you have airbag light on and have either B141B (driver side) or B141C (passenger side) codes, issues with second row inflatable seat belts codes, don't despair. This is actually a pretty simple repair...

So I found a great set of front seats from a 2000 Eddie Bauer SOHC 4x4 and they had seat airbags. The yellow terminal under the seat does have wiring leaving it that appears to actual run into the seat itself. I have a 2000 Eddie Bauer RWD and my original seats did not have Airbags. The...

I was replacing the cruise control switches on a 96 explorer and had the horn switches out and all and now when I put it back together if the bolts holding the center on are any tighter than finger tight the horn goes off the second I touch the negative cable to the terminal, I can't find...

Hi. I just bought this used car. First I noticed that I can be driving and my seat will move positions. I can handle that. But then my airbag light came on. It does go off sometimes. Then 2 days ago my car wouldn't start. It made it loud clicking noise. It seemed to make noises in the dash and...

Within the last month or so, I start my 2009 XLT and the seatbelt light and airbag readiness lights come on (normal) and sometimes stay on (not normal). It acts like I have a small child in the passenger seat. This happens when the seat is totally empty or most recently an adult is sitting in...

My 2002 Explorer gets the airbag light flashing after being started for 4 minutes. After flashing for 1 minute, it stays on. I'd appreciate getting feedback on probable causes and probable estimated cost to fix at Ford dealership.

I recently replaced the chewed-up-by-dog front passenger seat on my 2000 Explorer XLT. The replacement seat came out of (I believe) a '99 Explorer at the local salvage yard. Even though the seats are identical, the plugs and wiring for the airbag were different in color and compatibility - the...

Hi, 3 Years ago my family purchased a 1999 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer (5.0l), really nice truck... I love it! But it has a problem, Airbag light (code 3-7). I'm really worried about this, because I think that airbag will no deploy on a crash...recently we had one crash, (light was already...

About 2 months ago, my Airbag light began blinking whenever I start my car. It blinks 1 time, then pauses, then blinks 2 times, then pauses longer, then starts over again. It repeats about 6 times and then stays on. So my guess is that it means Error Code 12. However, I have no idea what to...

I had a wreck in my X and it push the bumper in a little, but both air bags deployed and one got me in the face. Messed my eye up and swollen my face. I found out how to remove the passenger airbag, but does anyone know how to remove the steering wheel airbag?

Hi, I have a 2003 Eddie Bauer and am getting the 42 airbag code. from other threads on this site i determined it was the front sensor which was broken so has been replaced ($95). I have cleaned the terminals in the connector prior to refitting and have now refitted and connected it. Prior to...

Hey, For a few months now there has been this orange man with a seatbelt across him right next to my spedometer. I looked in the manual and it says to bring it in to be serviced immediately because the airbag may not function in a collision. Another note is the guy only comes on every once in...

I have a 2003 Ford Explorer XLT My airbag and ABS light just recently came on. The Airbag light came on first, and now the ABS light is constantly on. I unplugged the negative battery terminal so as to reset the computer, but the lights remain on. I've read somewhere that a dead...
