CMAX airbag warning lamp
Summary of the thread
The airbag warning lamp on a 2015 Ford CMAX was persistently lighting up, leading to concerns about a defective cable or plug connection. A suggestion was made to check the crash sensor, as a similar issue had been resolved in another vehicle by addressing a faulty sensor. Ultimately, the problem was identified as a defective plug connection, which was repaired at a workshop.

Interesting. Where exactly is the crash sensor located, and is it something I can easily check myself, or should I get a workshop to look at it?

On my Astra, it was behind the front bumper. Given that it's related to the airbag system, I would strongly recommend getting a qualified technician to diagnose it to avoid potential airbag deployment issues. This is an important safety aspect of your car.

Thanks for the tip! I took it to the workshop, and you were right – a defective plug connection was causing the issue. The repair cost me 95€ Appreciate the help!

I had a similar issue with my old Opel Astra, although the symptoms were slightly different. The root cause turned out to be a faulty crash sensor. I would strongly suggest you check it out.
