Immediate SRS Help Needed... Posted by Clay McNeely [Email] (#497) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Clay McNeely) on Thu, 5 Sep 2002 21:55:33 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Hello, everyone. Yesterday on my way home, the SRS light on the control panel started flashing. Upon startup, the light flashes for about 5 minutes and then remains illuminated. The owner's manual simply indicates that this means that the SRS system is malfunctioning. It also instructs the owner to take the car to a Saab dealership immediately. Well, that's not quite possible. My nearest dealer is over 6 hours away. My question is if there is a way I can temporarily disconnect the SRS so that the light will go away and I don't have to worry about a malfunction of some sort. I realize this will take away the safety feature of the airbag until I am able to take the car in to have it looked at, but I'm one of those conservatives who don't put just tons of faith in airbags, anyway. I don't want this posting to start a huge debate over the effectiveness and validity of airbags, as I do realize they are a safety device that have the potential to be quite effective. I just greatly appreciate any help you might be able to offer and any suggestions you may have. Thank you in advance for your cooperation and prompt response. Drive safely, and KEEP ON SAABING!!!
