There are no campaigns/recalls for the SRS (Supplemental Restraint System - Air Bag). However, there is a Service Bulleting regarding the wiring harness under the seats:
DESCRIPTION:
Motion of the side impact air bag wiring harness and connector may result in illumination of the air bag warning light and one or both diagnostic codes listed below:
-
B1378: Driver side air bag (DSAB) resistance high.
-
B1382: Passenger side air bag (PSAB) resistance high.
This campaign provides a new side impact air bag wiring harness connector mounting procedure.
VEHICLES AFFECTED:
-
Model : 1999 - 2002 SONATA vehicles
-
Production date range:
- Produced through July 23, 2001
-
VIN range:
- Produced through KMHWF35H82A526636
SPECIAL NOTES:
The service procedure to be followed depends on the original wire harness routing under the seats. The required parts are different for each procedure.
-
For vehicles produced on or before June 30, 1999, use the procedure for Type 1 seats. Order service kit part number 88010-38A00.
-
For vehicles produced on or after July 1, 1999, use the procedure for Type 2 seats. Order service kit part number 88010-38B00.
If your vehicle doesn't fall within the production range, it's not affected.
I recommend you take the vehicle into a Hyundai Service Department and ask them if your vehicle has had this repair already. If it doesn't apply, pay the diagnostic fee to find out what the problem is. They will give you an estimate of repairs (parts, labor, tax, time-frame, etc.).. Then you'll know what the problem is.
Will an OBD reader read the codes your interested in? I have a repair manual but was told a OBD reader wouldnt give me a code for this issue since its a airbag light and not a check engine light. Its also come to my attention that time to time if the seat isnt completly locked into its spot it will also have the airbag light on. Thanks for your reply!
