Air bag light (need help)
#3
Lol, I wish it was that easy.
The people that did my car can't help, it's one of those I wish I would have never taken my car there. I'm better off trying to fix it myself. The but a new one or used one in the steering wheel and dash but im unsure of the next stop

because they were removed the system found a fault and came on only way to turn it off is to have it reset go to a dealer or someone with a a i believe tech 2 gm scanner and they can do it i had same issue when i built my firebird if you were closer to houston i could give you the shops info that did mine ill actually give them a call later and find out name of the scanner and let you know then you can just call around and see who has one

There are laptop-based scanners/software that can reset the SRS system and turn off the light. I own this one, though I haven't messed with it much:

Or do like I've done before, pull the cluster out, take the clear plastic cover off, and peel up the corner of the gauge inlay and put some electrical tape over the hole with the air bag light in it. Problem solved.

Sounds like he isn't trying to cover up the warning light, but actually fix the problem. Your solutions sound like 99% of honda owners with engine swaps that just rip out the p/s and a/c because it was just easier to remove it than finding the solution.

OP take your car to the dealer and have it fixed properly, then charge the original shop the bill for the proper repair. It's not unheard of to do this.

Lol. If it was something that needed to be fixed correctly in my application, I would have. However, I wasn't worried about it and just got tired of looking at the light. I wasn't going to spend any money getting the light turned off when it wasn't necessary.
As far as pulling the bulb, I never bothered pulling it because I could just peel up the overlay and cover it. I think it was in the corner anyway. It was for my '69 and I was going to cut it up in the end.
