hhmmm. bump for an answer. i have the same broblem in my ej7. i got a non-srs ek4 wheel and i dont know how to make the srs warning light go off. i unplugged the fuse for the srs system from the fuse panel but the light still wont go off.

EDIT: why is this in the parts for sale section? :what:

Put your OEM steering wheel back on and forget about it.....that way your ass can be saved if you get into an accident.:twocents:

I would think removing the bulb would be the easiest thing to do. If you've changed to a non srs steering wheel, who the hell cares how legal or illegal things get now, it will never work again anyway. Just write the system off and pull the bulb, problem solved.

yeah, just pull the cluster out and you'll be able to see what bulb it is

what do you mean write the system off ? i gotta take it through inspection.. i knew i should have waited

i put the stock wheel back on, and the light stays on now.. the 1st time i did it.. it went back off, now it just stays on..

Some cluster's have lil clips you have to almost pull them off with alil force. Yea mine was like that too when I put my hub and quick release on so I just went in there and pulled the bulb prob solved.

just remeber its gotta pass visual inspection also. if they see a missin airbag they might give you s**t about it.


cant you jump 2 wires and it goes off?

most of the time they sell a plug and play harness that runs a open circuit or closed circuit i cant remeber, but it takes the air bag light off and sends that message just continuously through that harness, kinda like a mil eliminator on a mustang so it doesnt trip the 02 sensor, its like a blocking harness thats what you will need to do it right.

did you reboot your car? unhook the battery for a few then hook it back up...works for my computer and PDA... =)

that wont work. put all your stock s**t back on and if the light is still on your are going to need a scan tool to erase the code (that is if you didnt f**k anything up) . why do you wanna put an aftermarket wheel on? isnt the stock rsx wheel sporty enough?

Change everything back to stock, go to any good shop that does diagnostic work and they can reset for about 30-40 bucks. Messing with the srs system is not a good idea especially if you ever have to sell your car.
