Two months ago, a day after I had an ignition coil recall done at the dealership, my SRS (airbag) light start coming on and would not shut off.
I took it the dealer the day after and they charged me $49 to do a "diagnostic" and clear the code. Light has been off for a month and a half now and just came back on this weekend. I checked all connections under the seat and all that, no problem. Light won't shut off. The first time, they told me the front air bag passanger harness needed replaced, estimate at $1185 to do.
Out of warranty for the repair. Toyota offered to cover 50% of the cost.
My question is... Is there anything that may of happened when they did the ignition coils to cause any of this? Or is it just that big of a coincidence? I mean, I have had the car since August 2007 and never had the light come on until the day after the repair. I am the only owner and never been in accident or anything of the sort.
This sucks... This is the second harness related issue I have run into. The first, being the VSC/Trac/ABS lights caused by the harness to the rear speed sensor. Thankfully, I was able to clean the connection, put some dielectric grease and never had the issue come back.
