I just pulled the yellow plug out of my gauge cluster. Quick, simple fix, totalled integra 3 times and civic once, airbags never deployed. Go to dealer if you really need it reset or download the helms manual.

If i were you i'd take it to a dealer to see whats up.

My SRS light has been on for over a year now, and htey say its my SRS "control box" or whatever that needs to be replaced. I think they quoted me for around $900 installed. I'm like "screw that" so i've left it that way ever since. If i ever find the time, i'll goto a junk yard and pick one up for cheap..

Peace

It is a yellow connector with two wires in it that is plugged into the fuse box,
unplug it and pull it down. Once you have done that you can begin the process of
erasing the memory. NOTE: This will only reset your SRS System if what caused it
to trigger has been fixed, Ex: turning the ignition on with any SRS Plugs
disconnected, such as pulling your seat out.

1st step in erasing the memory is to turn the ignition off and connect the SCS
Service connector to the MES Plug,

2nd Turn Ignition on. SRS indicator light will come on for about 6 seconds then
go off.

3rd Disconnect SCS service connector for MES connector within 4 seconds after
SRS indicator light goes off. SRS indicator light will come on again.

4th Reconnect SCS service connector the MES connector within 4 seconds after SRS
light comes on. SRS indicator light will go off.

5th Disconnect SCS service connector from MES connector within 4 seconds. SRS
indicator light will indicate that memory is erased by blinking 2 times.

6th Turn ignition off, and wait 10 seconds. Start vehicle like normal and light
should come on and go out like normal. You have reset your SRS light, congrats.
