    Okay, my SRS light came on. I was told it could be low battery voltage.
    The battery was 5 years old and the car has 148k on it. So it was a no
    brainer to try a new battery. Reset the light and all was well.

    Two days later, my car-pool partner who has a 2001 LX-V6 had the light come
    on. She replaced her battery, but we could not get the light to go off.
    She finally had them get a code saying the drivers seat belt latch. Honda
    warranties the seatbelts for life...but NOT the electronics!

    Now after a month, my light is back on. This is driving me crazy.

    She had her seat belt replaced yesterday, and we'll see how that goes. I
    reset my light again, but I know it's a matter of time before it comes on
    again.

    Note! The new seatbelt she got had a longer wire that was not under as much
    strain. Maybe this was an issue?

    I had this problem with my 2000 SE. There was a recall and the dealer fixed
    it for free.

    Wow Paul, you wouldn't have the recall info would you?

    There are a thousand things that can turn on that light. Have the codes read
    to find out. Could be an air bag ready to blow....
