Need some help on a 99 318ti
i need some help. the other day i was driving and accidently hit the steering kinda hard but nothing to serious. well i dont know if that was just coincidence but a light came on my dash. It looks like my airbag light. it is red and all the way to the far right. i am not sure what it is or what it means but the lady at the bmw place told me over the phone that my airbag wont deploy with it on. please anyone with some help please post up or contact me. thank you

To be honest, I think the airbags (and their warning lights) are a Beemer defect. There's almost always something wrong with the SRS system, and it costs a fortune to have fixed or replaced. In my '96 TI, the light is always on because the passenger seat sensor is broken (Doesn't know if someone's in the pass. seat to deploy that airbag.). So, you could fork over a buttload of cash to get it fixed, but maybe take it as a blessing so when you accidentally hit the mailbox at night, it doesn't deploy and total your vehicles value.

The only way to reset this light is with a special tool that most independent shops don't have. The light seems to be very sensitive to just about anything...
