ok so i was driving home yesterday and then the SRS light turned on for like 5 seconds then it turned off. anyone know what this means , or is it just a fluke?

 

bump. idk happend to me in my old TEAL civic as well hehe

 

hmmm i would look into that it would suck if that air bag just poped out in your face. i used to detail trade ins and some dude told me one went off in his face and broke his nose. i know theres a thread on here on how to turn the light off. you should be able to check codes like you would for a cel.

 

When you first start your car, the SRS light comes on for about 5 seconds. YOu sure you didnt accidently flip the car off then on again while driving? While driving, flip from 2nd to 1st accesory, then back again to second, and ur srs will come on for 5 seconds as it runs its test.

 

i was thinking that could of been what happend but, im pretty sure if my car turned off i would notice..... hmmm ya it would suck if the airbag went off on my face not only would it scare the **** out of me but it might cause some damage haha

but i drove for a bit today and the light didnt come on, ill definetly look more into it if it turns on again. thanks

 

Turn the car off, stick the key in the ignition and turn it all the way to the last notch but dont start the engine.

Look at your SRS light. If it flashes for about 6 seconds and then disappears, your SRS should be fine. If it just flashed once, it's an intermittent error, at least for now. You should be OK if that was the only time it flashed. (someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that's what the Helm's manual says).

 

that what mine did but after a week it stayed on, you should still report this glitch.

If it just came on that one time, your SRS should be fine.

 

my srs light never came on. then one day driving down the road they went off
maybe it did come on and i didnt see it but its on now.

 

mainly when a cel,srs light just flashes or comes on and goes off its normally a intermittent failure. so you should be good unless the light comes on and stays on then go get it checked cause that means non of your srs will operate correctly
