Thread: Discovery 2 SRS Warning Light

I've had that. It was a loose connection under the front seat.

Seconded, would come on every now and again when the seat was adjusted. Just made sure ignition was off and disconnected/connected switches underneath a few times to ensure good connection.

Apart from a possible electrical malfunction what is this likely to signify?

Should I seek assistance from a mechanic or auto electrician?

Thanks

A scan on the system will pinpoint the problem area, usually picking up one of four of the most popular fault areas.

1) Driver's side air bag continuity , usually the clock spring device under the steering wheel has failed causing a loss of continuity to driver's side SRS explosive unit.

2) The passenger's side air bag SRS explosive unit continuity has been lost. (Plug in connector at the underside??)

3/4) Loss of continuity to either side seat belt pre-tensioner, i.e the yellow wires mentioned by other forum contributers, going to the fixed buckle pre-tensioner device on the seat frame.

There others, like the main fuse has failed , but numbers one to four are the most prevalent faults.
Once you correct the fault area it will usually self cancel and the SRS wng light will go out once it has done a continuity check.

Hope that helps

no.5 empty your glovebox and give the yellow connector behind a wiggle. then repack the glovebox with less rubbish.

I don't think I could get it all back in.
