Question 1

Is it safe to drive with an intermittent airbag light?

Accepted Answer

Technically the car will still drive, but an active SRS fault means your airbag and seatbelt pre-tensioners may not deploy correctly in a collision. We strongly recommend booking a diagnostic promptly rather than ignoring it.

Question 2

Why does my airbag light come on and then disappear?

Accepted Answer

An intermittent SRS light almost always points to a connection issue rather than a failed module. The three most common causes are a loose or corroded under-seat wiring connector, a worn clockspring in the steering column, or a chafed wire somewhere in the SRS circuit. Because the fault makes and breaks contact, the light flickers on and off.

Question 3

How much does airbag light diagnosis and repair cost in Southgate?

Accepted Answer

Our diagnostic fee starts from £55. Once the fault is confirmed we provide a fixed quote before any work begins. Connector and wiring repairs are typically far less expensive than module replacement — which is often unnecessary.

Question 4

Will MnF Motors need to replace the airbag module?

Accepted Answer

In the vast majority of intermittent cases, no. Replacing the SRS module without fixing the underlying connection fault is a waste of money — the light will return. MnF Motors fixes the root cause: the connector, the clockspring, or the chafed wire.
