2000 Accord SRS light

The SRS light in my 2000 Accord SE (4-cyl auto., 58000 miles) came on,
and I reset it. It was OK for a couple of months, but it came on again when
someone sat in the passenger seat. Is there a sensor in the seat that can be
replaced easily?
Thanks, Tom.

 

There is a sensor in the seat that triggers the light when the passenger
leans towards the door such that the air bag would injure him/her if it were
to go off. It might be working correctly if it goes off when the passenger
moves away from the door. If not, the sensor is in the seat back. Easy
replacement if you happen to be an experienced upholsterer, otherwise,
probably not so easy.

When the SRS light in my 2000 SE came on, it turned out to be a problem with
the seat belt latch. There was a recall -- you should have gotten the
notice. Maybe your situation is the result of a different problem, but it
might be worth getting the code read by a dealer. The seat belts are covered
under warranty "for the useful life of the vehicle," according to the
warranty booklet.
