SRS Question
Alrtight, redoing my ignition lock cyl. after the theft. Want to disable the airbags.
everything i'm finding for literature tells me there should be a red clip on the cover to plug into the YELLOW clip in the steering wheel. I left the battery unplugged over night hopefully to decharge the SRS powersupply also.
here's the problem....no red clip, or place to hold one in my 96 EX. The battery has been uplugged overnight. How do I finish disabling? Should I just replace the ignition now? Should I unplug the yellow clip first and tape over so it doesnt ground?
Please help!(Searched here also and only found the red clip thing)
TIA

Humm I have a 95 dx coupe and the srs light stays on in my clusster . I hate that sh!t Does anyone know how to clear it out ? Without having to pull the bulb ? Sorry to jump on your post but I figured might as well instead off starting a new one ! Since we're on the topic

your srs light comes on because the system detects some sort of fault, when that light comes on your airbags are automatically disabled---you still need to power down the srs system before working on anything around your airbags tho

the other way you can disable it if you don't have the little red clip is to unplug the yelllow harness at the top of the fuse box. ANY yellow wire loom and yellow plugs in the car are devoted to the srs system. In one of my cars, I've had it down to bare metal a few times, and the srs system is the ONLY yellow wiring in the car. The brain for it is located dead center in front of the shifter but up close to the firewall. If you disconnect the plug at the fuse box, it cuts all power to the brain box. You may have to reset the system after plugging it back in, but that's a piece of cake.
