Thanks for the tip! Yes, it's constantly lit. Where exactly should I be looking under the seats?

Okay, constant illumination suggests a more consistent fault. The connectors are usually bright yellow. But honestly, messing with the airbag system yourself can be risky. Given it could be a cable or plug, it's best to get it properly diagnosed. I'd suggest visiting a workshop.

Thanks a bunch! Took your advice and brought it in. Turned out to be a defective connection as you suspected. Cost 95€ to fix. Appreciate the help!

I had a similar issue with my 208. Is it on constantly, or does it come and go? Could be a defective cable or plug connection. Have you checked the connections under the seats? Those are often the culprit.
