Default What does this mean?

My SRS light came on today, so I used the two-pin connector to get the trouble code. The light flashes 9 times, followed by two quick flashes.
Thank you.

If the SRS light is flashing 9-2 it's a Faulty SRS Power Supply.

Thanks. Anything I can do to remedy this? Where is the power supply located?

The power supply is the battery. First thing would be to check your SRS fuses under the dash.

I tried 3 different fuses. They were all good 10 amp fuses.

Just a little bakground on the situation...I removed an aftermarket gauge from my car today, and was messing around down by the fuse box to remove the wires from the gauge. Is there anything down there I could have 'bumped into' while doing this. I was pretty careful, so I don't know what could have happened.

What year is your Accord?

There could be a couple things down there that you could bump/disconnect that would cause the power to be cut from the SRS unit.

There are two SRS fuses. No.2 15A & No.3 10A. Another thing to check is the yellow 2 pin connector coming from the fuse box. Make sure you didn't disconnect it.

If everything seems okay, try resetting the SRS light and see if it comes back. Here is a link:

In my car there is a 2 pin connector that isn't connected to anything else. Is this the correct connector to use for the reset process?

The reset worked. No more light. However, does this mean that the problem is fixed, or does this just reset the light only. In any case, the light is gone. Thanks for the quick replies everyone!

Great. It may be fixed. You had previously removed an aftermarket gauge which may have caused it.
