Astra Airbag Warning Lamp

Airbag warning lamp lights up in the speedometer of my 2014 Vauxhall Astra (gasoline engine). I suspect a defective cable or plug connection. Has anyone else experienced this?

The airbag warning lamp in a 2014 Vauxhall Astra was illuminated, leading to concerns about a potential defective cable or plug connection. It was suggested to check the connections under the seats, particularly focusing on orange or yellow connectors that might be loose or corroded. The issue was confirmed to be a defective cable connection, which was subsequently repaired at a workshop.

Yes, I have seen similar issues with Vauxhalls of that era. The restraint system wiring can be quite sensitive. Have you tried checking the connections under the seats? Sometimes they become loose.

Under the seats? Are there any specific connectors I should be looking for, or anything that indicates an issue, like corrosion?

Check for orange or yellow connectors - those are usually related to the airbag system. Look for any signs of damage or corrosion. However, it's wise to have it checked in a workshop, as the airbags are safety-relevant.

Thanks. I took it to the shop. Indeed, the cable connection was defective as I suspected. Cost me 95€ to repair. Appreciate the input!
