Hi all,

I drive a '98 Contour at work (4 cyl, auto....your basic low-bid POS) and the airbag light started flashing today. Not sure if it means anything, but it would flash in a "53" pattern. It quit doing it towards the end of shift, and before I take it to the shop I was hoping someone could tell me if there is anything I can check before putting the car out of service for a few days.

Anyone have a FSM that they can take a look at and see if "53" has any meaning relating to the airbag?

Thanks:hit:

This happened to me one day in my Cougar. My battery terminal had some corrosion on it. I was told that while the light is flashing the bag can not deploy. Cleaned the battery terminal and it never happened again. :s5

I'll take a look at the cables. Thanks:s5
