The airbag warning light turning on can indicate a problem with the airbag system, often caused by issues with the sensors. The possible causes include:

Faulty Airbag Sensor: The airbag system has sensors in the front seats and throughout the car to detect impact and deploy airbags when needed. If any of these sensors fail o r have a wiring issue, the warning light will activate.

Impact Sensor Failure: Impact sensors detect when the car is in a collision and trigger the airbags. If one of these sensors is faulty o r not properly connected, it will cause the warning light to turn on.

Seatbelt Sensor Issues: Some vehicles have sensors that monitor whether the seatbelts are fastened properly. If the sensor malfunctions, it may trigger the airbag warning light.

Solution:

Diagnosis: A diagnostic scan will reveal if there’s an issue with the airbag sensors o r wiring. A specific trouble code will point to the exact faulty component.
Repair: If a faulty sensor is detected, it will likely need to be replaced. Its essential to have the airbag system checked by a professional, as airbags are a critical safety feature.
