Hi, I got a new battery fitted yesterday from the AA and now the airbag light won’t go off. I didn’t use the car yesterday after it was fitted and moved the car this morning to get my van out and that’s when I noticed it staying on. I’ve just been out to car again tonight and it’s still on . Will it go out when I drive it? Obviously I’ll be contacting the AA if it doesn’t go out.

Take the car for a short drive & see if it resets.

If not it may have to have the fault codes read & reset. 2006 RRS 2.7 HSE.

I’ll take the car out tomorrow after work and see if it goes out. I spoke to the AA man who changed the battery and he said the same , take it out and see if it disappears and to let him know the outcome. He did say he will come back out and reset the air bag light if need be. Thanks for the reply

I’ve been out today for a short drive. The air bag light come on after a couple of minutes. I drove another couple of miles with it on the pulled over , turned engine off then back on again and it has not come back on. Hopefully it’s sorted itself out….

Battery change provokes a lot of temporary errors that then stay in the memory.
Better get all these faults deleted. SW

Sometimes it is not enough to do our best;
sometimes we must do what is required.

Mmmm I’ll monitor it over the next few days and see how it goes……..

Just another thought - when I had a Vogue (L322) the airbag light had a habit of coming on and it was an issue with the expolsive battery terminal which was part of the airbag cystem - the yellow connectors seemed to get corroded & malfuction - don't know if the RRS has one though. 2006 RRS 2.7 HSE.
