:hb: only took about 14 tries until really understanding when the wires should be connected and when they should not. Light on = Short Circuit , Light Off = Open Circuit. Correct sequence will yield 2 flashes then shazzam!

just did this procedure. took several attempts because i was a bit slow on the 2nd connection. works like a charm. thanks for the info.

Almost 12 years later and this DIY is still relevant. Thanks for keeping the pictures up to date too, this saved me some $$ getting my SRS light 'diagnosed' at a shop.

Relevant it is. Took my car to Brandsmart to get a sound system installed, and removing the seats tripped the SRS light of course. For some reason the tech couldn't get the code to clear with his scanner and the scanner wouldn't even read the code. He proceeded to waste an hour of his time taking my car to some random shop, without calling me first. I got an alert on my smartstart GPS, and of course when I get to brandsmart I'm able to fix it in 10 seconds. Thanks dude, this trick is da bomb

It's on its last legs, but at this point, I don't know if I could get rid of it. 14 years is a long time.

hahah. Where'd you move to?

 

[donesome02]

Thanks, this worked perfectly for me. I had to give it about 10 tries before I got it to get to the 2 quick flashes part. After that the light stayed off.

There were a couple of problems I encountered. First, I used a jumbo paper clip which doesn't fit into the connector at all. I had to hold it to make contact so that made it a bit harder. Second, I wrote down that there would be 3 flashes in the beginning before the SRS would turn off for the first time. I didn't realize it said 3 seconds. If anyone is going by flashes I believe it is 7.

Now I just have my engine and abs light to go through.

Thank you for the post, it's still very helpful.

 

[donesome02]

My bad not flashes, I meant audible beeps.

 

[Vestroyer]

Thank you!!! Just be sure to be real quick...like with 1-2sec to reconnect the circuit.

 

[larryboy]

OP thanks! I did not know what to do with my SRS light that lit up a couple of months ago until i found this thread

 

[redfox2034]

Is there any chance of the airbag deploying or is this only a circuit for the light?

 

[Firepeppered]

I tried doing this but the fuse box is very difficult to access. After cranking my neck to the point I need a chiropractor, I finally by a miracle pulled out the SRS plug. But there's no slack whatsoever on that yellow cord so it would be impossible to coordinate putting the paperclip in and out by feel even if I had freakishly long arms. Guess I'm destined to have the SRS light remain on.

How are the rest of you possibly able to manage this? Are you unscrewing the fuse box? Even then the yellow cord is too short to access.

Nah , I did it , bought the car and the seats was unscrewed because the guy was about to part out , so with out knowing any shit of the car I decided to reconnect everything and then try this mthod , worked flawless
