Air Bag Light

My '97 Expedition XLT has a airbag light that comes on, flashes and then usually goes to a solid. Where should I start diagnosing this? Any input would be appreiciated. Thanks

The best way to get started is to find someone or someplace that has a scanner that will read the airbag codes. Places like autozone do not have a scanner that will do the job.

Start by counting the flashes and coming up with the two digit flash code.

Once you have that, we can offer specific suggestions.

My '98 Expy is flashing 5 2 and after about 5 times it goes solid. Any ideas?
