    Air bag warning light help needed please.

    I have a 13 mirage 3. A few months back my air bag light randomly came on i didnt hit anything just assumed someone had while i was parked. Anyway I paid £50 to have it run through a machine and reset to get it through the MOT. 2 weeks ago I was driving along a very flat smooth flat surfaced road behind a tractor so going about 15mph and ping the light is back on.
    Is there a way to reset it?_

    Did the shop that reset your light tell you what airbag code was stored? You're gonna need to figure that out first. Most cheapo code readers can't read airbag or abs lights. I haven't ran into intermittent airbag lights before. The most common cause of an airbag light I've seen were caused by a faulty airbag sensor or clock-spring. The only airbag light I've seen on a Mirage was caused by a side impact sensor not being plugged in properly after being repaired by a body shop.

    My air bag light came on, and it was just a plug underneath the passenger seat. Our dealer said that people will hit it with their shoes all the time and eventually knock it loose. My dealer said it's a common problem that they've had to just simply get under there and plug it back in. I know there's like 20 different things that could cause it but I would check under your seats and make sure everything's plugged in properly. Just an idea!

    That's exactly what happened with me under the passenger seat.
