No TSB, not Recalls, no info what so ever in Identifix or Mitchell search. My lights work normally now. I did find that the seat belt indicator was unclipped under the seat, but that just disables the reminder light.

There was minimal moisture behind the kick panel, however after blowing it off and rechecking, there were still no codes, and the light is still on.

Are you checking just the air bag codes ? On my snap on scanner you can clear all codes in ithe engine scan but only get air bag codes in the air bag spot on the scanner.

Did you actually unplug the plugs and look inside the connectors? That's where I found my problems. :(

Do the headlights wire through there? The Multi-function switch works as I can still use my fox and high beams, and the headlight indicator turns on, but the headlights don't work at all.

I didn't think to pull the plugs, I will do that next. I'm contacting the dealer tomorrow to find out about the warranty.

My Warranty through the dealer is still good, so I am going to try cleaning up the plugs and replacing the headlight bulbs and if that doesn't work, I'm dropping it at the dealers on Wed. Let them sort it out.

LMK if you find corrosion inside those plugs. Check the wires on the back side of the front-most plugs, one of mine was completely eroded/broken off.
