Title: Dash Warning lights ?
Post by: powerslinky on 01 February 2015, 13:38:15
Just curious . . .  but  . . . should the warning light directly above the "airbag" light   come on when ignition is switched on .

i'm thinking this is the seatbelt light :-\ :-\     & as SRS is fitted   .  .it is probably redundant ?  :-\ :-\

airbag light  is functioning normally . .  comes on & then goes off after a second or 2  :-\

In fact to clear this up completley .  . exactly what warning lights should be on when ignition is on but before starting?

TIA     Al :y

Ok Al  thanks . . .   So should both the SRS & Airbag light come on as the ignition is switched on ?

Is the airbag light  2nd from the left on the bottom row of lights in the rev counter ?

And the SRS  light directly above it on the top row?

If that is the SRS or  whatever warning light that is . .  it does not light at all :(

Checked my other 3.2 & that is the same  :-\ :-\

Just wondering if something is not as it should be :-\ :-\

Also looked at Gixers  pedal trick video & that light is not coming on , in his car either  :-\ :-\

Thanks VXL .   .   that one is fine  ;)      its the one directly above the airbag light  that is confusing me .

Just cannot remember if it has ever come on in any of my Migs . . .  it must be  an age thing  ::) ::) ::)

If its the seatbelt lamp, that's not an option on our cars.
