Default 1994 air bag been deployed??

I was wondering if anyone knew a way to safely see if the air bags have been deployed or removed at some point in the past?? I ask because the air bag light has been on since i got the car for one, There kinda seems to be pry marks around the air bag pannel on the dash.

The airbag trouble codes can be readout.

Look under the hood for a small plastic box labeled "Diagnostic." Location may be on the passengers side strut tower.

Turn on ign switch.

Connect the Tc and E1 terminals with a section of wire or paper clip.

Any trouble codes stored will be flashed out by the airbag light one number at a time. Example 1 flash, pause 2 flashes = code 12.

Once all the codes have been flashed, they will repeat.

If no codes are stored the light will flash at a steady rate.

When you have the codes post back or do an internet search on the number.
