Car Forum / Audi Cars / January 20072000 A4 Airbag Light
Does anyone know if it's normal for the airbag light to come on only when there's a passenger in the rear? I have front and rear side curtain airbags and thought maybe something was being disabled due to an occupancy sensor.

I had problems like that when the seat was put in without taking care of the wiring.

Yep, I had to have the seatbelt until (which apparently has the sensor in it) replaced under warranty a while back. On my car, it was the passenger's side rear (LHD).

No, it should NOT come on. It WAS coming on and staying on (sometimes blinking) prior to having the seatbelt unit replaced.

Do you happen to know if while that light's on, an airbag won't deploy? 1.8 Junkie knastet inn: : >>> So are you saying the light should come on when a rear passenger >>> buckles there seatbelt?No, it should NOT come on.

The whole control unit should be deactivated, as the system report some failure. Too bad, if one airbag blew out by mistake ;-) > > > So are you saying the light should come on when a rear passenger > > > buckles there seatbelt?No, it should NOT come on.

Well, that's a good question, the owner's manual doesn't specifically say what would or would not happen with the light on. I'm not sure if the side curtain airbags are one big unit that covers both front and rear windows, or are 2 separate units, one for the front window and one for the rear.
