Default SRS (dual-threshold front airbags) light does not go off on my Honda CRV 2001?

Should I pay >$120 to dealer to check it out?

Do you want them to work in an accident? That little light means one simple thing, the airbag is not going to fire no matter what - that's it, doesn't mean anything else.It can be alot of things causing it from a failed sensor to no juice to the unit. Whatever the cause of the light, the car thinks that the unit is hosed and WILL NOT make it fire. This isn't like your brakes where the brake light is on but the pads are still attempting to apply pressure. An airbag fired at the wrong time will kill you or a passenger. If you don't like the $120, shop around, but do it now.
