SRS Warning Light Flashing
My SRS Warning Light started flashing the day after my repair job. I probably should have taken it in to the dealership right away, because air bags can be dangerous. However I let it go for about 3-4 days and it seems to have reset itself.
I found out that the Air Bag System can be connected to the radio, especially if the vehicle has a CAN (controller area network). I have a 2002 Toyota highlander. I don't think they started using CANs until 2003, but this still may apply. I also heard that the SRS light can go off if it is disconnected from power. I'm thinking I disconnected the SRS system from the power when I disconnected the radio.
This is a quote from
Automotive CAN Network Diagnostics "Various kinds of problems can occur on other CAN-equipped vehicles when the battery is disconnected or goes dead. The modules in the CAN system require a certain amount of voltage for their Keep Alive Memory settings. If this is lost, the module will forget these settings and may not function properly until it has time to relearn the lost data. In some cases, this requires a special relearn procedure using a scan tool because the module can't do the relearn by itself."
