If you are investigating an airbag warning after a seat was moved, save every stored and pending code before clearing anything. Read the restraint-control module with equipment that supports it. Record the engine temperature and load alongside the reading; the same value can mean different things in different conditions.

A basic reader may not access every module. Look for trapped wiring only from a safe visible position; do not unplug airbag connectors. Use the exact vehicle’s service information to interpret the result.

Quick educational note

For information, not a diagnosis or repair instruction. Vehicle-specific checks are still required. Consult the manufacturer's guidance and a qualified technician.
