Inspection question!!

I was woundering, i have my cel light on, and i just don't have the money to repair the sensor that's messed up, would i pass the inspection if i took out the cel bulb out just so i can pass inspection.....and if i took out the air bags and took out the air bag light so it don't blink...would i be ok with that. Would they notice it. And one more last thing...should the cel light go off if the whole A/C system was removed, i don't think it should but just thought i'd ask sence im here.

Just curious, why are you taking out your airbags? I hear they save a life every once in a while

I would advise against the removal of the airbags. Unless you are getting aftermarket shoulder harnesses up front. Stock seatbelts are designed to stretch with airbag setups, cushioning the blow, while still catching you. This keeps from injuring the driver and front-seat passenger in a head on collision. If you remove the airbags, the seatbelts will not necessarily save your life. Just a word to the wise, tryin to save a life.

When I did my testing, the CEL came on right before the test, but they still tested the car. Not sure about the air bags...

i sent you a PM, is all this for an inspection sticker ?
i just got one and it was funny as hail.

im down in MS, and our state law requires that you must be parked in some type of enclosure to have the car inspected ?

they guy came out, i pulled under a tin shed like thing, he tore my old inspection sticker off, and put on the new one. i gave him 5 dollars and drove off. it took 2 minutes
