Ok I have a 2004 F150. The airbag was flashing 42, I have since replaced that sensor and now its flashing code 16. I have searched everywhere and cannot find the answer to my question. Any clue as to what this code is trying to tell me.

Lost 1, this is lost 3, are you lost 2?

 

42 is the front sensor. This is a known issue with the pins corroding. You can try to clean the pins and put some di-electric grease on them. I did this on my 04 and it worked for a couple of years. I just had the dealer charge me $300 to replace the connector and sensor. Charged me 2 hours labor to sodder 2 wires. Drove the truck home and the airbag lite is back on with the same code! Not sure what code 16 is, but I know 42 is the front sensor.

 

Welcome to the site. Is anything else not working such as the cruise control if you even have it.

Maybe someone can chime in that knows what that one is for you.

 

I serached for code 16 on the net and found this "A diagnostic trouble code of 16 will be obtained when the antilock electronic control unit detects normal system operation".

 

Airbag light flashes 16 four times what is it
