In addition to the case in which the airbag actually deploys, we may notice the warning light for it illuminated in the instrument panel due to a sporadic or momentary malfunction, such as a loose connection, related to the airbag control unit, some sensors, etc. There is a very simple but often effective way to deactivate the aforementioned warning light, commonly used in any car and not only in the Ford Ka. In practice, as explained in the video tutorial available here, we disconnect the negative pole of the power supply battery of our car for a few seconds, and then reconnect it. Reset complete.
