Default Reseting SRS light

i have already seached. can someone tell me where the SCS connector is or show me a pic?

EDIT:for the severvice conector, this site http://www.7thgencivic.com/mod...id=19 said to buy speaker harness at best buy or circuit city. Should i buy it for a 95 civic, since that is what i have?


EDIT:hey im at the last step where the light blinks twice on and off; then i turn off the ignition.

But after i start the car again, the light wont go off, can some help me

Make sure you did it right, if so you have something wrong in the srs system that needs to be fixed.

Directions for erasing memory on SRS light
1st you need to either buy or make the "SCS Service Connector." I used a speaker harness for and older Honda which you can buy at a local stereo shop such as Circuit City or Best Buy, and cut the wires and looped them together. You can also use a paperclip but that will make it a little more difficult because you have to connect it and disconnect it a few times quickly.

2nd you need to find the MES (Memory Erase Signal) connector

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.

If it does not work the first time try it again, the timing has to be perfect. My first time it took me 3 attempts before it worked, but it did work.

Jump the scs connector and count the blinks. It should flash a code and a sub code.

its easy to reset the light i just did it in 5 min before i had to go to work

make sure that you fixed whatever made the srs light turn on.
for me it was my driver seat. there is a plug that senses for the seat belt, just had to plug that in before attempting to reset.

i used a piece of copper wire and looped it to a U shape :]

turn ignition off.
1. connect scs and turn ignition on, count to six(light off)
2. count to 2 and a half, disconnect scs(light on)
3. count to 2 and a half, connect scs(light off)
4. count to 2 and a half, disconnect scs(light blinks)
5. turn ignition off
6. count to at least 10
7. start car(srs light turns on and off as normal)
