Airbag Problems?

Airbag Problems?
I recently took the Fit on its first real road trip from San Diego to Dallas and along the way the first thing I though was weird was the passenger airbag light coming on and off periodically, but then it stopped. About half way the driver (red) airbag light started doing the same thing, flickering on and off. Now, the passenger airbag light has been working fine, but after about 5 minutes of driving around the drivers airbag light comes on and doesnt go off. I dont really know why it does that, I am hoping someone on here might have some insight into why this is happening. I plan on taking it to the dealership ASAP to get this looked at, but after my trip I havent really had the chance yet to take it in to be looked at.

You don't happen to be one of those people who leans against the driver's side door, while driving, are you? If so, then try sitting centered in the seat, and see if the problem goes away. I know the owner's manual specifically states it will turn off the passenger side airbag, if it senses that the passenger is probably leaning against the door (based upon weight distribution in the seat cushion), so it may do the same on the driver's side.

I posted an airbag issue post jsut today about how i removed my intake to take it into the dealer to have the light checked. When i put it the stock intake back in, the light went off. There is something to do with the Fujita CAI intake and the airbag sensor in front of the car, probably on the airbag crash sensor.
