Ok, i have the red, light with the guy sitting down, with a seatbelt across him, and a big ball in front of him. Its been on for maybe 4 months, so my friend today when we were driving took out my owners mani and started to read it and it says "If this light apears take to toyota dealership right away!" Does anyone know what this light means?
Thanks. -cnelson. -------------------- "Drive Well...

That light came on about 2 years ago. I removed the fuse. I don't want an airbag deploying on my face. If I'm gonna get my face smashed against the steering wheel, so be it. I don't wanna be deaf if it deploys with just a little bump like it has happened on Mercs and other cars. That **** kills your hearing. The high frequency noise it makes damages your inner ear hairs.

That **** kills your hearing. The high frequency noise it makes damages your inner ear hairs. Its not really that loud (its only for a split second) and it doesn't noticeably affect your hearing for longer than like a day or two (although who knows about the long term affects) and if you're wearing your seatbelt and sit far enough away from the wheel (recommended to be at least 10") it shouldn't even touch your face during a low speed impact. but the passenger bag does break the windshield and disrupts that whole side of the dashboard, and the smell of the powder that goes everywhere is pretty bad -------------------- |
