Airbag warning light by model year
What owners say
While in parked or in motion, the air bag indicator lamp stays lit. I took it to two separate repair shops and they were unable to correct the problem. One shop removed the front passenger seat to check for faulty wires or connections and found none. I was advised to take my 2004 chevrolet colorado double cab truck back to the dealership where I purchased it, to have diagnosed & repaired. The problem still exist as of today.
Airbag light is continually on. When running, driving, at all times.
Tl* the contact owns a 2004 chevrolet colorado. The contact stated that the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 50,000.
Wires to the airbag wiring harness are broken in rear drive rside passenger door. Resulting in airbag light to come on.
Airbag light is on. My truck has never been in an accident. Through research I have found that the wiring in the door breaks.
A/c heater resistor and plastic connector for both resistor and blower motor arced and melted. Also air bag light is on.
Airbag warning light came on I feel this needs to be a recall as other colorado owners have had the same problem.
Tl* the contact owns a 2004 chevrolet colorado. The contact stated that while driving approximately 10 MPH, the air bag light illuminated. The air bags did not deploy. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where the mechanic diagnosed that the broken wire in the extended cab front driver's side door needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 98,000.
The air bag light would not go off. The power window on the drivers side rear would not operate from the drivers door master switch panel.the passenger side mirror stopped working. The airbag light remains on, the inoperative power rear window continues to be operational but only from the rear door switch and continues to be non responsive to the drivers door master panel. The all the power windows ceased to function and I found a blown fuse which when replaced allowed the three working windows to resume operation. I had a certified mechanic troubleshoot the airbag system with a computer program. He told me the airbag system would not reset due to a fault with the drivers side door airbag located in the "a" pillar. As there are already recalls on gm pickup truck driver side master window,mirror switch and these above stated failures the risk of safety may have to be investigated and a recall expanded.
Air bag warning light was lit on my 2004 chevrolet colorado extended cab which I assume would make the air bags inoperable during an accident. Problem determined to be a broken wire in the harness between the cab and the back door.
Airbag indicator light required dealer repair to replace a wiring harness at a cost of $91.
