Hi, air bag light is flashing ( 1 steady followed by 4 quick) and says airbag/seatbelt malfunction.
Anyone know if this is an expensive fix?
Is it a main dealer job?
(2015 model)

Thanks :)

    From a Google search code are 4-9 or 4-5 etc.
    So you would need to read it again.
    Wath some YouTube vids it might help you get the right code.
    After the long code is it 4 short gap 4 again. Or 4 and 5 the long one being the ending of the code.
    3 things I’ve read are glove box full of stuff bumping things in dash
    Seat move red or stuff under seats knocking the wires or liquids go into it.
    One code is for a fuse in the control box, soldered to the main board.
    The on off switch for passengers air bag also.
    Just found a 14 code.

    It’s one of those things.
    My car had a parking sensor go 3 day before warranty ran out.
    Never been hit etc.
