Random airbag light help?

[Mr.meyhem 10+ year member]

my airbag light came on on my 09 honda civic lx. and i can't figure out why.... the only things that i did before it turned on was tuning my apsm 1300 with a dmm to 1 ohm from 4 ohms. and i pulled out my bass knob from down by the internal fuse box. so I'm thinking i might have bumped a fuse down there or maybe blown one some how??? I've been looking for some time on which fuse is for the air bags and all i can find is how to reset the srs. this does me no good cuz an airbag did not deploy and there was no impact.. so if anybody could link a fuse diagram that would be great. I've looked on 8th gen civics but couldn't find anything on there either. or if something else might have caused this. i didn't let my voltage drop to below 12. i looked at the fuses briefly to see if i knocked anything loose or anything but couldn't tell. thanks for any help. i have 53000 miles on the car so its still under warranty, but it would be nice if i could just replace a fuse rather than having to bring it in...

power wire is on the opposite side of the car. i have rca's and power wire running underneath the rear airbags on the sides by a foot or 2. didn't mess with that when the light came on. ( don't worry rca's and power wire are on opposite sides of the car)

try unhooking your battery...wait about 5 minutes...and hook it back up...hopefully that will reset your ecm and solve problem

Maybe the problems are totally unrelated.

If the new setup works like it should your airbag light may come on more. Side affect in some vehicles and the hhr is one of them that have that issue.

My 95' 240SX airbag light is on as well. Its been on for years.. way before I owned it, or touched anything on the car. Not even the battery.. and its never been in a wreck/collision, and it had 10k miles when the problem showed up. Still only has 22k.

I got sick of it one day, took apart the instrument panel, and disconnected the bulb. Problem solved. /winning (till I get in a wreck)
