Default Whenever I move the seat, the airbag light comes on...

Getting mildly annoyed by it. It's always a driver and/or passenger side impact bag: resistance too high, intermittent. I've noticed this is common on 98's with side bags. Going to the dealer tomorrow. I hope I can get them to work with me and put some heat on AoA. Airbags are to be replaced every 14 years and they damn well should last that long.

Im thinking more pinched wire, crossed connection or bad connector. I don't think its the bag.

Default Right, same here. It's just frustrating. I cleared the code again..

and moved the seat. It didn't come back, yet. Next time it happens maybe I will just have the dealer trace it.
