Airbag light

Its that time of the year again. When ever our weather warms to around 0C and my truck has been running for a half hour, the airbag light and the parking break light comes on and stays on until the truck is stopped and cooled down. There is no change in performance, and apart from this the truck works fine. 99 F150 4.2. 4x4. I have recently had it serviced with no issues. Any ideas to the cause, and should I be concerned? thanks.

Will the park brake light turn off if you pull up on the pedal? The switch may be sticky or the park brake cables might be sticky which is making the pedal not quite return to the top.
You'll have to get the air bag system scanned to help get you pointed in the right direction. After the light has been on there will be a trouble code stored, just like if the check engine light came on.

Looks like an appointment at the garage. It may be the sticky pedal, however it did not change when I lifted back on it. Will let you know in a month. thanks
