Airbag light flashes code 36 then goes steady. The light flashes three flashes, pauses then flashes six flashes, then pauses and repeats sequence. It does this sequence about five times then the light goes on steady. After doing some online research for clues, I looked under the driver's seat and found a broken wire on a yellow connector. This yellow connector is for the airbag system. I talked to the local dealer about it, and he said that I would have to pay to have it fixed. This should be a recall item since it affects safety. The vehicle has to have airbags by law, but I guess they don't have to work. The emission system is still covered under warranty and is not a matter of safety, go figure!.
