Air bag lights

[big wong97]

Thinking about putting a momo steering wheel with a quick release. Was just wondering do the jam ecu's turn the airbag light off or would i need to go to a toyota specialist to get it turned off?

Neither dude, once the airbag is off, use a volt meter set to ohms and test the resistance of the airbag, then go to an electrical shop and buy a resister with the same ohm resistance and connect it between the two wires on the air bag plug. Then reset the ecu and all is good I'm the world and it's only cost you 20p or so 😝

That's what I'm about to do with both my air bags

Sod doing that each year!! The resister is a full time fix!

I know I will prob do the same when I get round to it lol

I took the bulb out and just left it like that

Shud it not be. All the same resester 4 them all I've this problem

[Jay85]

No, not all ways if the passenger air bag is larger for instance it will have a larger charge to seri toff at the required speed so the resistance may be different

Also the normal ecu doesn't control it. It has its own separate ecu for it.

My airbag light isn't on and I have an airbag light lol :/
