When the airbag system is activated, for example following a car crash, the warning light on the dashboard comes on. However, this light could also come on due to a faulty connection of one of the sensors located under the seat, in the dashboard, and so on. Once the problem is identified and technically resolved, the next step is to turn off the warning light.

In this regard, electronics come to our aid, in fact by connecting a tool like the one shown in the video tutorial to the car's OBD port, you can connect to the control unit and identify the error, deleting it permanently.
