You read the flashes for the code..
flash-flash-pause-flash-flash-flash-LONG pause. restart
would be a 2-3 or a 23.

A flashing airbag light can mean one of two things. The first possibility is that your battery is in death throes.




how often do new batteries go bad?....my battery is only like 5 months old.

found this today....code 32
32=Driver Side Air Bag Circuit High Resistance or Open


what do i do now? what does the high resistance mean?

anyone?

High resistance = The electrons have a lot of resistance to being able to make it through the circuit.

Your body provides more resistance to electricity than water.


An "open" would be INFINITE resistance (electricity can't go across a broken wire...)


It is basically saying that a wire involved with the driver's side airbag circuit is either disconnected, cut, or corroded.
