I removed the air bags quite some time ago, and just wondering what i could remove with them and how to make the red AIR BAG light go away. Please don't open thread and respond with, put air bags in.

 

Remove the ACU, or better yet...take out the damn bulb?

 

when i looked behing the instrument cluster there was no bulb. I think its wired like an LED or something is the ACU the thing under my armrest? by the way thanks for the FSM man it helped alot last night.

 

Well, you could always tear the board apart and remove whatever surface mount thing is there. Alternatively, electrical tape or something opaque between the light source and the front of the cluster would probably work.

The airbag computer is underneath the center console, directly inbetween the two seats (arm rest/storage pocket area). Remove (or just disconnect) that and the light should go away.

 

Thanks.

 

Nah disconnecting it didn't work. Im messing with my old cluster at the moment.

 

I have two questions: I cant mess up the calibration as long as I don't take off or like force the needles to skip a space right? and Does anyone else know any other way to make the light go away?

 

take the cluster apart and you might need a soldering gun for the bulb. i forgot what kind of bulb it is, if its an led or not. if you are worried about the gauge needles, dont be, you can move them around and it wont mess anything up. just make sure the rpm needle is at 0 when you put it back in (as opposed to the otherside, 8000). try not to move the fuel gauge needle but if you do it doesnt really matter either. when you turn the car on it will just readjust itself.

 

reset it and if dat doesnt work just take out the bulb

 

resetting it wont work cause the airbags still wont be in the car after the reset

 

I just put electric tape over the whit box that the LED is in not what i intended on but same result thanks for all suggestions and help.

 

oooo just take out the bulb das ur best bet buddy
