I knwo I don't have a Contour, but since the Mondeo is very similar, I'm hoping someone can help.
My airbag light has been blinking over the last few days. It seems to blink 4 times, then a slightly longer pause, then 4 times again, and so on. Sometimes it starts blinking when I start the car, sometimes it doesn't blink at all on a journey, and sometimes it'll just start randomly.
I have pulled the airbag fuse and checked it, and it seems OK.
