My 98 dx Civic's SRS light won't turn off after replacing the clock spring. Meaning I disconnected the airbag to remove steering wheel. Things I've tried:

I jumped the SRS connector plug under dash that goes into fuse box(watched YouTube videos on how to do that after Googling my issue), disconnected battery overnight, and reinstalled the clockspring again making all the connections again especially the srs connections. Then did the jumping of that reset connector plug and battery disconnect for hours again. Still, the red SRS light is on in my cluster. I've been doing these reseting attempts for a week in all different ways. What else can I do? I installed identically to the previous factory one very easy just connectors. The new clockspring is the same as old except that its got the wires for cruise control. It came from same year civic as mine except lx(cruise) not dx.

 

Why didn't you jump the service connector to pull the SRS codes?
