Default 5th Gen - SRS light.

Its been to the dealer twice, and they still can't fix it. The car doesn't thorw any codes, and they want to replace the entire SRS system, for about a $1000.

It came on one day, while driving, and then didn't come back on the car when it was restarted. A week or so later, and its back, and it won't go away now.

Any ideas?

If all the fuses are good, the srs control unit could be the problem.

How much did they charge you to reset the light?

I would try removing power to the tcu unit and see if that solves the problem

Nothing. It was there for another issue too.

if the light is on, it has to be throwing an SRS code. If you know someone that has access to a scanner, and by scanner, I mean a real scanner with Honda modules and waht not and throw it on. Go to the airbag section and it should throw you a code or two. It may be as simple as the seat belt having a short as to an airbag having a short.
