When you start the engine, it is normal for the SRS light to stay on for 10 secs or so, maybe a little less. It is just doing a self test. I think it also does it in position II with the key.

If it is randomly coming on and off other than that then there is an issue and you would need to get the code read.

I got caught in a thunderstorm and actually documented how the 99 model lights turn on in startup in a thread.

I'll find and link here
