My 2002 accord hit a pole and broke the srs unit controller(ironically the bags didn't deploy). My mechanic says he can install the srs unit controller, but I will have to take it to honda to have the ecu reset so that the lights don't stay on.

After my bitter experience with the Honda dealer(he's a shark). I'd rather do this on my own(that f**ker is not getting any more of my money!). Help!

thanks in advance!

Solution: Reset the SRS funtion:

1- look underneath dash, near fusebox, for a 2-wire yellow plug, disconnect it and pull it down so you can work with it
2- turn ignition OFF
3- jumper the 2 wires together (cut paperclip in half and straighten, insert one end of both halves into back end of plug where each wire goes in, touch them together and hold)
4- turn ignition ON (SRS light will turn on for 6 seconds, then turn off)
5- within 4 seconds of SRS light turning off, unjumper the 2 wires (SRS light will turn ON)
6- within 4 seconds of SRS light turning on, jumper the 2 wires (SRS light will turn OFF)
7- within 4 seconds of SRS light turning off, jumper the 2 wires (SRS light will blink ON and OFF, indicating SRS function is reset)

Is there any way to turn the srs light off when you have an aftermarket sterering wheel?

Unfortunately I know of no way to do this. The best you could do is remove the bulb.

you need to get a CMR hub that comes with the right fuse to fool the SRS unit to thinking the resisitor is still attached. very slick. i have one.

or remove your bulb.
