I have a 00'v6 coupe my srs light came off when I installed new gauges. I want to reset it without going to the dealer. Anyone know how, thanks.

 

pull fuse 13 on that passenger side fusebox for 10 seconds or more.

 

thanks man, I'll try it when I get home.

 

Make sure you have your radio code just in case it resets that too.

 

someone taught me how to use a paper clip
to reset SRS light after i remove my seat.
30 seconds for 70 bucks

 

Are you sure that will clear the codes? I thought you had to screw around with the MES connector to clear SRS codes.

 

Uhhmmmmm, I thought that reset ALL the codes

hurriedly pages through Helms

edit: you are correct. you have to jumper the MES connector, and go through a series of plug and unplug. It also specifically states to use the SCS connector and NOT a jumper wire. Any particular reason?

Yea, the procedure has to be done exactly as the instructions say. With a paper clip, you can't always jump it cleanly, which throws it off. Then you have to start over. I used to take me about 4 tries using a paper clip to get it right. We have the scantool now.

I can't find it , but someone here has a link to the MES procedure. Maybe they will post it, it's too much for me to type.

 

My good deed for the year, Santy Clause is coming so I'd better be good and kiss *** and maybe he'll bring me a hairdryer to replace my headers

Erasing the DTC memory

1)turn ignition switch off

2)connect the scs service connector to the MES connector. Do not use a jumper wire

3)turn igition switch to on

4)The SRS indicator light will come on for about 6 seconds, and then go off. Remove the SCS service connector from the MES connector within 4 seconds after the light comes on

5)The SRS indicator will come on again. Reconnect the SCS service conector to the MES connectoer within 4 seconds after the light comes on.

6)When the SRS indicator light goes off, remove the SCS service connector from the MES connector within 4 seconds.

7)The SRS indicator light will blink 2 times indicating that the memory has been errased

8)turn the ignition switch to off and wait for 10 seconds.

I know what your thinking. WTF is the MES connector? good question. maybe someody with a digi-cam can take a pic and post it. its up under the steering wheel. Above and behind the scan tool connector (where you jumper it to get CEL codes)

 

Will this work for a 96 ACCORD? If not, how would you do it for a 96 ACCORD?

Yes, it's the same.
