    I did a little research and I am certainly not a mechanic. My wife God bless her soul decided to go out in the driveway and vacuum out and wipe down the inside of the 2011 Tahoe.. when I got home and started it up I had a service airbag light. I asked her what she did and she basically explain that she raised the seats and push them all the way forward to vacuum under and behind and then move them all the way back to vacuum the front footwell.. one of the videos I found said there is a connector on the driver seat where your right hip would be underneath that becomes loose or breaks and needs a new connector and solder repair.. it may also exist on the passenger side this is for the 07 through 14 GM

I just replaced my clock spring and steering position sensor and it worked fine, but I not knowingly I unplugged my Range Technology from my obd2 (because I have a 2011 suburban with DOD) and now the airbag light is on and it seems everytime I turn the steering wheel or hit a bump it pops up the notification on my dash and it's getting annoying

    Hello 1A! Is it normal for the service light to stay on after replacing the sensor? Do you need to clear it/drive for 50 miles or whatever to clear it? I don't have an OBD II that reads the SRS system so I wouldn't be able to clear it. The video shows he cleared the code, but there is no mention if the dash light stays on until it is cleared. Thank you!

    I do have access to a scan tool that’s capable but I’m lazy and don’t want to go to the shop to ask a friend to check it out. Is it common for the front impact sensor to fail due to its location? The friend I bought my truck from used to drive on the beach so I feel like it’s more than likely the front sensor due to the salt water and sand

    Funny. Service airbag light comes on and they say don't drive it. Safety issue. Bags won't deploy in a wreck. Well what's the difference in driving an old mid 80s vehicle that didn't have them. Is that a safety issue too?
