Default Air Bag Light

My air bag light comes on sparatically. I went to try to get it inspected today and of course it was on. The guy told me he wouldnt give me a sticker unless it was off so he just told me to make it disappear and he will pass me. Any suggestions to turning it off? Or pulling the bulb out of the dash?

will pulling the fuse turn the light out? Would pulling the bulb be easier?

You didn't say what you have, but newer models have LED lights in the cluster, you can't simply pull a bulb.

yeah sorry. yank the fuse = kills the system. then after you get her through, go through the steps in the linked thread to get rolling RIGHT again.

yeah no tried this w my wifes 03 and its been constant till today found a broken ground wire in this case, ground connections for each side are inside core support under headlights and a small one side of frame horn on drivers side just behind front bumper/fender support brace. Also check the connectors for corrosion and or oil antifreeze as both sensor lead/sensors are just in a position for contamination. I would scan first and go from there.
