The airbag warning light will flash in a code of 5-1 or 5-2, meaning "system down fuse open" (51) or "damaged backup battery" (52). This is a common occurrence on the airbag deployment modules, after researching forms i found that most people will try and fix it themselves. Improper repair of this could cause improper deployment of the airbags and leaving it alone will also cause improper deployment of airbags. After seeing thousands of people with the same problem with such a vital safety feature. It is almost a direct necessity that the airbag deployment module is recalled asap. This event occurs upon start up of the vehicle.

Airbag control module has not been made available by mazda. These are supposed to be inspected and/or replaced every 10 years or when go bad to ensure airbag system continues to work. Known for going bad after about 10-15 years due to internal airbag control module battery going dead, or control module going bad, these are blue in color and found under dash area usually on central fire wall. Since mazda has not continued to make the srs control modules available for 89-2005 cars it is impossible to keep airbag srs system functioning properly. Still over 400,000 of these cars on road now majority have no way to keep srs airbag system working properly. Mazda should be manufacturing or at least fixing these modules as srs airbag system is safety item. Srs airbag light will flash when these go bad and airbag system will no longer work.
