RX Airbag Warning Light

Airbag warning light is on in my 2007 Lexus RX with a gasoline engine. It's got 202381 km on the clock. I've checked the fuses, but they all seem fine. Any ideas what could be causing this?

I had a similar issue with my Lexus RX (don't remember the exact year). That SRS light can be a real pain. It could be a faulty sensor, or even just a loose connection. Have you tried checking the connections under the seats? Those can sometimes get kicked and come loose.

Thanks for the tip! I haven't checked under the seats yet. Are there specific connectors I should be looking for, or is it pretty obvious once I get under there? Also, is it safe to mess around with the airbag system myself, or should I leave it to a professional?

Yeah, look for any yellow connectors - those are usually related to the airbag system. Honestly, messing with airbags can be risky if you don't know what you're doing. I ended up taking mine to a workshop. They said it was a defective cable or plug connection, and it cost me 95€ to fix. Probably best to get it checked out by a pro, especially since it's related to vehicle safety.

Okay, thanks so much for the advice! I think I will take it to a workshop to get it checked out properly. Hopefully, it's just a loose connection or a simple fix like yours was. I really appreciate the help!
