Does anybody know what size resistors I woukd need to make the airbag controller think there is still a airbag in the steering wheel?

I know somebody here works at a chevy/pontiac dealer, you may have a tool called an airbag system load tool(or simalar)[I work at a Chrysler dealer, we have one for chrysler vehicals], I need the resistace across that Please

 

What are you trynig to do make the "Air Bag light go off on the instrument cluster?

 

HE'S ASKING FOR ME,

i changed my wheel and i wanna make sure my passenger side still works even though my driverside doesn't

plus i didn't wanna cut wires, or remove bulbs!!!!


so, does anyone know the resistance !!!!!!

hey dave, how are you doing

 

Try a 2 ohm, I know from work that all fords except the focus is that. Maybe GM is the same.

 

Hey Adam,I'm fine, you?
how's the car running? did you get it idling ok?
maybe after the holidays I'll come up there and we'll try the 2 ohm resistor, if there are no more good replies

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year all !!!!




Hey Trey, are you gonna be at times square for New Years?

 

Hey Adam. What did you change your wheel to, another stock one or something aftermarket? If aftermarket, what did you pick?

I have to disconnect my airbags to go road racing this year and don't particularly want a light on in my dash either so I'm interested in what you guys find out.

 

i did another stock wheel from one of the newer models. i have a 96 wheel, 98 airbag?, and 99 controls, with a 2002 wiring harness!!!!


um, i put a socket wrench through my guage cluster so i had to replace it, and the new one didn't have an airbag light in it so???

i mean, you can disconect your air bags from under the dash, its easy!!!! i don't think i'm gonna find the resistance for it.

the reason i got dave to ask was, I WANNA MAKE SURE MY PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WILL WORK!!.

good luck with the racing mike.

later

 

still got your old airbag? Just take the two leads of an ohm meter and touch them to the terminals of it where it used to plug into the stock harness. See what the meter reads.

 

ahh, skip that then

I'm mildly familiar with small electronics and electrical bug chasing, but not with airbags!

 

I have 3 volts coming out of my steering wheel going to my bag on my sunfire. I replaced the bag sensor and computer module but there still is 3.0 volts coming through the wheel. I am putting in new bags today, hope that doenst pop them
