Default Airbag Light Again

Over the 3 years ive had Sol the airbag light has stayed on a couple of times after starting up.first time i got it reset for free at toyota,the second time they charged me £25 to reset it

used sol last night for work as doing 12 hr shifts and tina needs the suzuki for work.fired up and the light is staying on again

came home this morning and read up on the net if it would affect the next mot if i left it as is and took the bulb out the dash.apparently there are no checks on the mot for airbag operation,so ive taken the bulb out.

was thinking about an aftermarket steering wheel to be rid of the airbag alltogether,but would lose the stork for the cruise control which is on the original steering wheel,so will leave as is for now.

found this useful site about mot's

How to Pass the MOT

If you bridge E1 and Tc it will flash the fault code up on the airbag light that way you will know why it keeps coming on.
