Who here did a A4 - M6 swap and used a M6 harness???
A swapped out my 4L60e to a T-56 a few months ago and swapped out the harness as well. Since the swap, my airbag light is on. The codes show passenger side. I checked all of my connections and all look good. Do I need to splice a wire into the PCM harness or something? Anyone else have any issues?

I did the swap along with a M6 engine harness of the same year. I have a 1994 though so it maybe alot different. I would first check to make sure you have the connectors coming into the firewall on the pass side connected. I had three. If you removed the steering wheel check for any plugs there. I forgot a little orange wire and had no A/C or turn signals. Check the Airbag sensor box too. I have one directly aft of the shifter. I hear some cars have them behind the pass side kick panel. Maybe something unpluged there. Good luck. I hate finding gremlins like this myself.
All the yellow colored plugs are Airbag on my car. Unplug the battery or you may depoy them while pluging the connectors in.

I did my swap and spliced just 2 cables of near the center console. That means that I didn't need to take out the whole harness and dissasemble more dashboard components or engine bay connectors than nessesary. I think thats why most people who makes the swap use the already placed and with good fitment stock harness.

I did it too on my 99 without a hitch. There is an airbag sensor in the center between the seats that is near where you have to splice a reverse light wire, maybe you bumped that? Otherwise thats all on the interior harness which is separate from the engine/trans harness
