If you see the passenger airbag light flashing in your Toyota 4Runner, it could be caused by an issue with either the airbag sensor or the airbag module. The airbag sensor acts as a detector that can sense sudden slowing down of the vehicle and sends a signal accordingly. Its main job is to communicate this information electronically with the electronic control unit and other components of the airbag system. On the other hand, the airbag module is a computer that stores data. This means that in the event of a collision, the impact details are saved in the airbag module. If your vehicle has been in an accident, collision, or if you have hit a curb or a pothole causing the airbag light to come on, then you will need to have the airbag control module reset.
Why does the airbag light flash and make a beeping sound after the Toyota 4Runner is turned off?
The blinking indicator for the passenger airbag in a Toyota 4Runner might signal an issue either with the airbag sensor or the airbag module.
