Does a warning chime sound each time you start the car as well?

[ashbox]

bad, take it to your mech or holdens and get it hooked up to a tech 2

[Craig54]

no warning chime

[Craig54]

sounds expensive
the kid next doors car does the same

[ashbox]

put it this way.....
you have an accident and your airbags don't go off when they should, your insurance co then find out the airbag light was on and void your insurance.
shouldn't cost you anymore than 60 bux to get it checked as to why....
mine came on a week ago, i took it to ultra tune and they checked it for free.

i got it done for free at holden. it takes 2 minutes lol but it came back on when i broke down

[juice1929]

for free they wanted to charge me 110

[Killr6]

mine cost me 110$ at holden

[ciddyau]

farkkkk that. lol it takes 2 seconds what pricks

Is there any way to fix the problem DIY-style?
If its a 2 minute job by the pro's, surely its do-able..

not unless you have a tech 2 machince, which is very expensive haha.

i swapped my standard dash out for a HSV 3 level cluster and my airbag light is always on and chimes every time i start up because when you swap clusters it has to be re-programed....reminds me i better find someone with a tech2 machine to help fix it

firstly.. i just put SS seats in mine, and had the same problem, if the seat belt stems have been activated, i.e, are damaged in any way from an accident, this will cause that prob as well.once i replaced the stems, i took it to holden, and they wanted to charge big dollars,so i took it to my local guy and he had it done in under 10 min. charged me $60, all fixed..

secondly.._VX21_, dash question.. i wanna put my HSV dash cluster (from VU maloo) into my VT, (supercharged 6) is it do'able, and whats involved electrically. cheers.
