Resetting Airbag

Hi All,

So I replaced the clockspring in the steering column today because I had lost my horn, my cruise control, and my airbag light was blinking.

About 1 year ago, when it started blinking, I was able to reset the SRS system by pressing the button on the B panel of the door jam like 5 times within 7 seconds.

Now, I replaced the clockspring, put everything back together, horn and cruise are working, but for some reason I cannot reset the airbag light...I can't figure it out. Does anybody know the exact code or procedure for getting that damn light off? I tried the same thing that worked last time, pushing the button 5 times in 7 seconds and turning the key etc., but I can't get it to turn off.

The only reason I care is because I just sold the car, and I told the buyer that as soon as I replaced the part (the clockspring), he would no longer have that light blinking anymore. PLEASE HELP!!! I know you will...thanks alot everyone!

-Woody

I've posted the complete procedure at least once before... if you search, you should be able to find it... i'll take a look now for it.
