Snowy069 New Member 3 Member For: 6y 19d Posted 09/04/19 02:47 AM Share Posted 09/04/19 02:47 AM By using the 2 resistor plugs it just fools the system I to thinking the seats has no airbags like it was from factory so the SRS sytem has reset itself and the light goes out. Im 99% sure by doing this the rwst of the SRS system is still active as it was from factory, just the seat airbags wont deploy in an accident. I was studying the wiring diagrams last night and disnt see any other modules attached to the system BUT having said that I need to search other diagrams for the crash sensors to see if any are optional other than the front rad support sensor.
