i'm about to install an aftermarket steering wheel on my SRS equipped ride. i know that in order for me not to throw the SRS light, i need to put a load resistor across the airbag connector harness.

for testing, i just need to know if it is safe to put a multimeter across the connector of the airbag itself to measure its resistance. i don't want it going off in my hands if i'm not supposed to do that.

or you can just tell me the resistor value i should be using. i've read 3ohms to 2.5ohms to 4ohms. which one is it? some guy even used a potentiometer (variable resistor) to vary the load until the SRS light went out.

thanks in advance.

 

nobody has replaced their steering wheel with an aftermarket one?

 

yea me,I did it long time ago but the damn SRS light still there, I realy havent look to get off ether cause i always doing something else but is getting to bother me already.
I will go thru. some info to get this light off if anybuddy here havent go thru. it already I will . just give me some time.
later gaby

 

thanks! anybody else?

 

if ur steering wheel has a air bag just get a crant steering wheel cover its about $60 but will help u when u need it. the grant covers are cool also
