Question hmmm...


On Soarers you pull out the ABS fuse, leave it for 5 mins and then plug it back in to get rid of that warning I think. Might be different with SC400's.

Worth a try tho.

You can't reset it just by pulling any fuses or disconnecting the battery. You should go to the dealer and see what the code is in case you have a real problem. Did you do anything that might have set an airbag code? When any Lexus is started it does a self check. That is why the airbag light stays on for about 8 seconds, longer than any other light in the combo meter. If it detects a problem then the light stays on.

Get it checked out!

Default air bag light

Don't take any chances bring it to the lexus dealer. I had my car painted and the auto shop hit something where the front bumper was located and my air bag light came on. They resetted the code and costs 95 bucks.

hi all,
I found this site on the internet that says,

Important warning:

When removing the combination meter from Soarers fitted with the driver's air-bag it is critical not to switch the ignition on with the meter removed. This would trigger the Air-bag Error Code and the air-bag warning lamp would stay on when the combination meter was re-installed. The Error code is difficult to clear unless our Air-bag light switching box is used.

here is the link, airbag error light
