Ok, install it a Momo wheel. From what I read, I was to get a 2.2 ohm resister and gap the air bag wires to get the air bag light out. Well, I did all that and it didn’t work!! Light still on🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯. Are these the correct resisters? Is it ok to solder it in where I did, and WTF happened? Why didn’t it work. Thanx.

You installed a 2.2K ohm resistor (2,200 ohms). You need a 2.2 ohm resistor (bands would be red - red - gold - gold). You can find 2.2 ohm resistors online (Amazon) around $6 for a 10-pack with free next-day shipping for Prime members. You should try to get the right resistor but technically you could use something in the range of 1.3 ohms to 4.8 ohms due to electrical tolerances.

Ok, awesome. The situation is critical but not hopeless. Just ordered the red red gold gold. Will swap out and see if that works. Thanx a bunch for your help.
