So a little while ago I lost my phone in my car. I swore it was under the seats as I could hear it ringing, etc. and so I went like crazy pulling/pushing under the seats trying to feel into every nook and cranny for a good 15 minutes. Turns out it was in the trunk

After this day, I noticed that my airbag light was turned on.

Question is - Could I have unplugged something under a seat that caused the airbag light to turn on? Or was it simply a coincidence? I don't want to take my car in for an annoying to reach plug that I'm unaware of under one of the seats.

Thanks for any help!

 

Did you look to see if any plugs where loose? What year is your TL?

 

There are 4 bolts that hold the seat down. Two in front and 2 in the back. The back ones are harder to get to as you have to remove the plastic covers.

 

If I'm not mistaken the SRS light in the TL is for the seat belt as well as the air bag. So because of having airbags in the seats it could have been wires from the seat that were unplugged or maybe the seat belt.
