Unexpected Seat Belt Light Flashing - Toyota Yaris Forums

2008RedHatch · 09-20-2018, 11:41 PM

I bought my Yaris a month ago, and it had the seat belt light flashing and air bag light on. I got price knocked down thinking maybe just a sensor needed replacement.

I found this forum and checked under driver's seat looking for a loose connector and found one unplugged. Plugged it back and no more warning lights!

My car only had one owner before, and maybe they unplugged it? But used car dealer I got car from had no idea how to fix it.
Also was able to also saved a $178 diagnostic fee from Toyota dealer to see what was going on.
