Angry Airbag problems

My 02" quad cab airbag light just came on. I pulled the codes but they have no # , It just says " xx- No left SIACM message" and " xx- No right SIACM message" . Has anyone ever seen this?

Maybe the power to the sensors or a ground circuit went bad?

How did you pull the codes? That sounds like a message the reader is giving you, saying that there are no codes in the system. Usually the ones at places like Autozone will only read codes if the check engine light is on.

However, the first thing I would check for your airbag is the clockspring assembly. Does your horn work? If you have cruise control buttons or radio controls on your steering wheel, do those work? If not, then it really points to the clockspring. Even if they do, that's probably the first thing I would have a mechanic check. Dodge was known to have issues with them in the past.
