Airbag light diagnosis
Posted: Thu Jun 28, 2018 4:47 am
I just recently finished a JDM EJ205 swap into my 92 Legacy Sedan. Wiring was merge by IWire and it runs great. My check engine light is normally off, my ABS light is currently on, but it is because of the ABS Sensors on my axles (Since I have a JDM 5 speed as well). I am fixing that next week with new sensors.
My biggest annoyance right now is that my airbag light is on. I have had a hard time finding information online on how to diagnose or reset it. I tried messing with the 6 pin connector and the single ground wire under the dash (Next to the black ECU read connectors) but none of them had any effect on the light or car. I believe my issue is that when I was pulling the wiring harness, I had just gotten it out and then noticed I forgot the windows down and needed them up to park the car on the street. I plugged in just enough of the wiring harness to be able to get the windows up. During this, I think I might have had something for the airbag system unplugged which caused the light. I heard that the airbag light will stay on until it is reset but that could also be false due to the lack of information I was able to find on these cars. I really just want the airbag light at this point, I'd take out the bulb but it's not a removal bulb, it's built into the dash.
Anybody have any tips? Maybe there was something I didn't connect when putting the wiring harness back in, or maybe I do just simply need to reset it and I'm doing it wrong.
