Crossland X Airbag Warning Light

My 2018 Vauxhall Crossland X diesel has an airbag warning light constantly illuminated. Mileage is 213973 km. I've checked the usual spots, but the light persists. I suspect a defective cable or plug connection. Has anyone experienced something similar?

I had a similar airbag issue in my Crossland X. It's often a connector under the seats. The airbag system, like a complex orchestra, relies on every instrument playing its part. Even a slightly loose connection can trigger the warning light. Have you tried checking the connectors with an OBD2 scanner? It might provide a more precise error code.

Thanks for the tip. Which connector specifically gave you trouble? I've scanned it, and it pointed towards the passenger side sensor, but I want to be sure before I start pulling everything apart.

Yes, the error code led me to the passenger side as well. I would advise against disassembling everything yourself unless you're experienced. Car safety systems are no joke; like handling a loaded weapon, it should be carefully considered. I strongly recommend taking the car to a reputable workshop to get this issue rectified. A professional diagnosis can save you time, money, and potential harm.

Appreciate the advice; took it to the shop. You were correct; it was a faulty connector on the passenger side airbag sensor. Repair cost X€95. Thanks again for the help.
