I just installed a new CD player in my car and it works great. I was followingi instructions from the Chiltons manual and there they suggested disarming the airbags just in case one of the sensors is hit.

Anyway, I am done with the installation and I reconnected the airbag plug but the SRS light won't turn off. I seriously don't feel like going to the dealer and paying $80 for labor.

Anyone have any ideas???

i never disarmed the airbags before while installed a deck.

maybe you can try to disconnect the neg off battery for a few mins. its just a suggestion.

 

Tried it, still no good. I dunno what the hell is up with it.

 

why dont you just call and ask the dealership. they cant take your money over the phone. if they wont give you advice, call another.

 

reset the ecu

 

thats what i thought of when i said pull the battery...maybe he should have taken out the fuse also....:dunno:

 

did you ever figure out how to get rid of the srs light?

 

Nope, I think I will take it to the dealer, I think the computer just needs to be reset or something, I tried disconnecting the battery but that didn't help!

 

Yeah I heard somwhere that once you disconnect the airbag, the light has to be reset by a dealer. This is what stopped my friend from getting TL seats in his Accord (they have side air bags built into the seat).

 

i had the same problem and what happen was my whole srs airbag system had shorted out and they had to replace it.. but it was covered still by the warrenty...
