That sounds very frustrating. It's hard to say from here what is going on but it could be a poor connection somewhere, or that one or more of your replacement parts is defective. There are a lot of rebuilders putting...
Hello. The SRS light comes on when the computer detects an issue with the airbag system. It may be possible that a sensor or component of the airbag system may have malfunctioned and set the light off. Usually this will...
