help!! my 2004 fx4 supercrew airbag light is flashing 19 ... The airbags may of gone off with first owner but I have had it for years with no prob . any info would a great help

 

I would look into the recall that is out right now. The wire may be rubbing in the steering wheel and could ignite the airbag, if its related to the recall.

 

my truck was built 12/03 so i dont think it is part of the recall

 

Mine was built in 11/03 and I just had the recall done on it a couple weeks ago. Call the dealership and ask them about it. They can run your VIN and tell you

 

You need to get it in for the recall ASAP. The blinking light is the first indicator that the wiring has rubbed through and is tripping the light. You are probably running your time really short before you randomly end up with a face full of airbag, which can be pretty hazardous. There is NO warning other than the light blinking before it explodes on ya.

Get it in soon, like today.

 

^^^^^^ what he said!

 

Well its at ford .... dont know if i will sleep tonight with out my truck in the driveway ..oh well thank you all for the info about the recall . I would of had no idea !!

 

No problem!

 

You're welcome. One night without the truck is much better than an abrupt punch in the face, and possibly worse with your reaction to it while driving, when the airbag randomly deploys.
Glad you took it in!!

 

I had the same problem about 2 months ago. Mine turned out to be the passenger airbag light on the dash was burned out. I fixed it myself by ordering the part from the stealer. Pull the trim from around the radio to gain access to the light. It's an LED light so you have to replace the unit as a piece and not just the light. I believe the part was under $20. Best thing to do is take the part you need to the dealer and show it to them. They had a hard time locating the part in the computer and I had to come down with the part so they could see what I was talking about. It's also a special order part. Should only take 2 - 3 days to get in.
