Default Airbag light

When I start my car the airbag light flashes 3-4 several times then stays on. Can someone let me know what this means before I spend alot of money to fix it? Is this a scam to get a car owner to bring their car in for service? Thans for any info you can give. sewser

Default RE: Airbag light

Does the lamp flash an LFC? prior to staying illuminated constant.. An LFC is a lamp fault (flash) code is present, it will be a series of indicated flashs that would be letssay for a LFC code of 19 as an example,,, it would be indicated by a single (1) lamp flash for 0.5 second period, then a 2 second pause, and another series of 0.5 flashes for a count of nine (9) for a fault code 19.. Then, if more than one fault were indicated a 5 second pause will be between each display of the fault number/LFC.. A steady on lamp would need to have the code/s retrieved from the restrains control module..
