Ducato Airbag Warning Light

Airbag warning lamp illuminates on the speedometer of my 2023 Fiat Ducato electric with 151031 km. Has anyone experienced similar problems?

Summary of the thread

The airbag warning light on a 2023 Fiat Ducato electric with high mileage has illuminated, raising concerns. Potential causes include loose connections under the seats, particularly related to seatbelt pretensioners and side airbags, or a defective crash sensor. The recommended solution is to have the vehicle checked at a workshop with diagnostic tools to ensure the airbag system's safety and functionality.

Airbag lights are never fun. Could be a bunch of things, but given it's a '23 model Ducato, I'd start by checking all the connections under the seats, particularly to the seatbelt pretensioners and side airbags. Sometimes just wiggling them can temporarily fix it if it's a loose connection. Any recent work done, like seat removal or any kind of modification?

I've not had any work done to the seats recently or any modifications at all. Could a defective crash sensor cause this?

A faulty crash sensor could be the culprit, but those tend to throw more specific codes. More likely it's a general wiring or connector issue somewhere in the airbag system. Without pulling codes, you're kinda guessing. Given it's still relatively new, though high mileage, I'd seriously consider taking it to a workshop with diagnostic tools. Much safer in the long run to have the restraint system checked properly than risking a faulty deployment (or non-deployment) in an accident. Seems like the cable or plug connection of the component could be defective.

Appreciate your thorough advice. I'll get it checked at a workshop. It appears the likely repair cost will be about 95€. Thank you again!
