my airbag warning light has been flashing for some time, pretty sure it was last feb when my car was mot'd. Is this a fail now? been trying to find answers online but cant find any recent info? all for jan onwards last year but like i say, mine passed in feb.
How can i fix this if it is a fail?

If youve removed and refitted youyr steering wheel it could be that connection. Mine hasnt stopped flashing since i refitted mine!

Fit a timer circuit to the light, that way the light comes on and goes off with the ignition, a cheat yet but it gets the ticket.
Not sure when the date for the new rules is now, they did keep putting it back as like my car nothing is in there so cannot be tested and even new Rally car's for the UK do not have Air bags or ABS which was a issue I think

Double check the connections underneath both seats.......it's a common fault.

Sounds like a loose connection under the seat as Gareth says or a broken wire possibly, also check your pre tensioners
