Question Stupid SRS light

hey all,
I know it says if your SRS light comes on to take to the dealer and i also know that theres a DIY to reset the light but 3 days ago the SRS light came on without me touching anything. a year ago the light came on but i found out i had taken my seats out and turned on the car, but this time i have not touched anything. has anybody had the same problem. dealer is charging me 90 F-ing bucks to take it off.

Well, for one, if you can't diagnose the code yourself, you will have to go to an Auto store to run a diagnostic check. Just a precaution like you said yourself. It doesn't cost much to run the test.
