#3 of 4 SRS Light by puravidacr Jul 21, 2009 (12:47 pm)
I have a 2004 Runner with 149,000 km (diesel) - the SRS light comes on then goes off for a while then back on. 1. Can I replace this myself? 2. If so where is the sensor located? 3. I also understand that the belt replacement light should come on at 150 km as well - same questions as above Replies to this message: tidester (Jul 21, 2009 10:00 pm)
