Airbag light ON with the key out of the ignitiion... no light when ON. - Toyota 4Runner Forum

First off, this forum and community provided me valuable tips and time savings on getting my 97 4Runner in tip top shape.

Last night after fishing, I noticed the airbag light flashing when I turn off the engine, removed the key and locked the doors.
I put the key back in the ignition cranked her up and voila, no airbag light.

Did anyone experience anything like this? Any suggestion helps!

Well, this is a blast from the past. Here is a link to an issue I had that seems very similar to what you are experiencing.

Hope this helps. Seems you and I may be the only ones to have this issue - at least that I have seen. FYI my issue has never come back.

Air Bag Light on even with truck off - Help

The only time I had an airbag light on. I was working on the area on the passenger glove box and I believe I bumped the passenger air bag wiring knocking the passenger air bag connection loose or unplugged it and forgot to plug it back in ( was 4 years ago so kinda fuzzy). Once I pushed the connector tight again it never came back on. The good thing is the 3rd gen only have 2 airbags, so the isn't a lot of wiring to check. :-)
