I recently got into an accident in my S14 a little fender bender and my stupid air bags went off. I fixed the exterior body not the only thing that I want to know. Is there a way to cut out the censor for the air bags and so how? I am planing to but a racing steering wheel on, but I do not want the air bag light is still on.

hey..it beats putting a piece of black tape over the light...

works bell hubs are super nice, but when repairing some damage...you may not have the cash to drop on one..

buy a steering wheel form someone who bought a tyte JDM one, Do that yourself, or there should be a way to connect the wires so it thinks its still there.

basically its just 2 wires looking to complete a circuit. if you find the 2 wires and connect them, the light should go out. if you need wiring diagrams pm me and i'll try to email you one.

just take the bulb out its much faster than dealing with the wiring and its clean

Disconnect negative battery terminal.
Wait 3mins.
Take T50 tamper proof bit and remove airbags.
Replace air bags with new ones.
Connect battery.
Turn ignition to on for 1sec then off then back on and code should clear.

I Know that the nismo steering wheel hub has a plug that shuts off the airbag light. here is a link to it.It's Only 150.00 Cheaper alternative to the works hub and its still jdm tyte.

Hope i was of some help

and I thought this thread would be about something important.


there should be a resistor trick to deactivate the light

this will not work infact you could blow something else trying to do this..
the airbags them self have a specific resistance. once the resistance is changed the airbag blows.
all you need to do is make a jumper with the right resistance and the light will go out..

i might have an extra driver side airbag
60 shipped
i think thats the going rate

did some for sale searching
seems ok
i dont know if have it still
i dont know condition either
we were going to put it under the couch cushion and hook it up to a battery for a fun gag.

all the cancellation bullshit is just a resistor. don't buy that over priced bell works
