    Just wondering if anybody can point me where to check for my airbag issue.

    No fault codes under diagnostics. Only error I’m getting is the Info light with the airbag symbol.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Volvo premium tech tool software will be able to show you the errors, in other words you need a laptop with Volvo software doesn’t have to be a dealer as long they have a working program and right adapter

    Dunno about the Volvo trucks
    But with Volkswagen cars it’s almost always the connection of the wires that plug into the bag harness on the steering collumn or under the seat

    yeah I’ve already checked the wiring within the airbag inside the steering wheel and found no issue. I was hoping someone would know where all the sensors and modules are at.

    Are you running Omnitracs ELD? I have the same issue, it's the ELD. Unplug it, and it goes away. No fix they say other than changing to a different ELD make.

    This is the correct way to find your issue. If you insist on throwing parts at it blindly though, I would start by replacing clockspring first.

    I’m not any ELD, nothing is plugged into the diagnostic port.

    Yes I agree! Unfortunately where I’m from every mechanic will throw parts at it rather than doing a proper diagnostic.

    Are all horns in steering working if yes remove steering cover and check maybe airbag unplugged or clock spring broken. Usually if they replace steering shafts sometimes it gets damaged need t 27 long torx. 2 screws and cover pops up.

    Thanks for the advice!

    I did removed the airbag and visually I don’t see anything wrong and the airbag is plugged in tightly. However I can’t see anything beyond the wiring harness that the airbag is connected. Is there a way to remove the clock spring? I did not dug deeper but it seems like the steering wheel will have to be removed in order to access the clock spring? Is that how it is?

    Thanks!
