every time i get in my car and start the engine or have it on the on possition the air bag light flashes 6 times but instead of going off and just having the seatbelt light on the seatbelt light goes off and the airbag light stays on though out my driving, i have noticed that if i play with the stering wheel before i start the car or having it on the on possition that sometimes i will go off! and i am able to clear those 2 codes mentioned above. but im not really sure if that might be the cause.
any help would be appriciated
thanks in advance

sup dude,
sorry to hear about your problem, 03's are a little buggy. I once had the airbag light come on but mine was due to low voltage when my battery died. Once it got fully charged in about 2 days it was back to normal. Also there has been similar post here before, look them up maybe it will help

yeah doesent look like its the harness under the seats because i unplugged them and replugged them and what do you know it went off but when i got i my car now it went back ON i think the problem comes from the front driver airbag

once again help is apriciated

It may be that harness described in by ewill3rd, however, you're not getting any codes. Here is the comment from the other thread:

It is common to have problems like this on the harness that goes from under the seat to the side air bag.
Depending on the codes of course, I usually just replace the aforementioned harness.

The old post mentioned a possible pinched wire in the center console, you may want to investigate that as well.

the only cdoes i get when the airbag light is on is the 2 irc and ipc U1000 and if i try to clear codes they will not go but when i did what you told me and got the airbag light to turn off i was able to clear those 2 codes so i dont know whats going on...

as for the pinch how would i be able to get in there to some how see if thats the problem?
