I've had my POJ Kia Optima for nearly 2 years, and about 3 months after we got it the airbag indicator light started coming on. We are under warrantee with Kia, so we took it there to get it fixed and spent 8 hours waiting even though we got there when they opened. They finally came out and told us that they had removed the driver's seat and repaired the loose/malfunctioning wire, but it took them a while because they couldn't figure out exactly where it was. About 4 weeks after they repaired it, it started flashing again, and about 2 weeks after that came on and has stayed on since. I want to know how do I fix this myself. I've done minor electrical repairs on my cars for a long time, like replacing light bulbs, replacing fuses, installing a car stereo, and installing a new electric window/door switch panel. I believe I am completely capable of fixing this myself and saving myself the time and frustration of spending another 8 hours at Kia to fix it again, I just need to know how to go about it and what to look for.
