air bag - 8/29/2008 9:45:19 AM

Driving on the interstate yesterday I started "bouncing" a little so I pulled over and discovered the driver''s side air bag had deflated. So I hit the button on the dash, which inflated the bag, and I made it home without further incident. The bag stayed inflated over night which brings me to a question of: could this be a problem with a valve or computer programming instead of a leaky bag? I only discount a leaky bag because it was driven after inflation, parked, and still holds air (varying conditions). Thoughts anyone?

Geez....another sensor! Thanks Spike! I honestly didn''t know I had one but doesn''t surprise me. These DII''s are sensor poor

BTW Spike, did you get your laptop repaired?

No, not yet. I dont have a soldering pencil, so right now it is sitting on the back of the couch with the power cord wedged so that as long as I dont bump it to ard it will stay plugged in. So I have to sit backwards on the couch to use it. LOL Not to bad as long as I am not trying to watch tv too.
I need to go to my dads and use his soldering pencil. But he is 40 miles away. And I just got laid off so we are conserving gas.
