Why does the airbag warning light turn on in the Volkswagen Golf VI?
Years 2008-2012

Answer

The airbag warning light can also turn on due to a malfunction in the connection. Often, it's just a matter of checking the wiring. Additionally, remember that the airbag kit is guaranteed for 15 years, but it may start to have problems after 10 years, so it may be necessary to replace it. Replacing the airbag kit can be quite expensive, so it's best to be sure that the problem is really with the kit before replacing it.
