2G SRS lamp wont turn off 🙁

[ChristianEclipseAuto]

Hi DSM’er
My horn was not working on my original steering wheel so I took my chance with a new Evo steering wheel and installed it. (With bracket and the switch adapter I had the battery off all the time when installing it.)

After I turned the car on last week the SRS light did not go away. I try to install new airbag clock (brand new) no luck there either I tried go back to my stock steering wheel but no luck going back either. SRS still did not go away.

I drive in the summer with my daughter so I won't accept just removing the light bulb.

Hopefully I can get some great response to my problem

I just had mine turn on today as well

Alot of people have been goodluck with just replacing the SRS module, located in the center console.
There are procedures for testing ill screen cap here for you to troubleshoot.

Okay I Will try that. But the connector is the red wire under the steeringwheel right?

But I Think it is the module under the console there is something wrong with. I changed the clock to a brand new with no luck so far.

So when I took off the steering wheel to fix the horn and installed the evo wheel, it must have send some sort of signal even though the batteri was not even in the car

Was the clock spring centered? That there was no way that it spun when installed? Also what's the code for the SRS light?

I also had to reset mine with MUT II/III tester after replacing clock spring

 

[ChristianEclipseAuto]

Yes the clock springs was not turned or anything. When you buy it from new you install it, put the steeringwheel on and then there is a pin you pull out, and from there it turns with the steeringwheel. I hope this is the right Way to do it ?

Evoscan did not show me any codes at all so I dont know the code. And I dont know What scanner that Can reset the airbag light?

like I said, MUT II/III scan tool, that involves to go on your closest dealership which has a working one as they are starting to get hard to find even from dealerships, aftermarket scan tool.. maybe AUTEL could work, they provide pretty good system, haven't tried with DSM yet but they do have mitsubishi/chrylser cable extensions at least

You need to know what the code is first.

depending on evo scan version and which cable you use, it might not show it, nor any aftermarket scanner, seen it happen before

the module under the center console usually goes bad.

if you unplug the module the light goes away. I do not believe the module communicates with the obd port, it just measures resistance of the sensors plugged to it. I could be wrong though

I have a detachable steering wheel. I fixed my SRS light by removing the lamp from the back of the gauge cluster. Lol

I concur. If you remove the SRS module under the console, all of the lights will go away on the dash, and the codes or lack therof. Now for the OP...I think he was eluding to wanting to keep the airbag functions, so that may not be as desirable of an option as most of us would think.

I wonder if this would help...

[Sirius1995]

Y'all are suggesting just getting rid of the light, not fixing the issue, he clearly states that he wants airbags to be functional, also I'm not sure if in -97 model you can do key dance to Morse the code but that should show SRS codes as well

I also have a talon with the SRS light on, I'll try the disable and enable light key/batt trick above and report back. I talked to the dealer and they said they don't even have the machine to clear and diag SRS anymore so no support there.

I'd like it to work, but the electrical tape over the light has helped so far

Well i figured it out on mine. You have to use the evo plug and wire it to the old wires and then some times the light goes away. If it does not, you need the device to unset the srs. I bought my device on eBay ?

As it's yet another ticking timebomb, I wonder what goes wrong with the module and if it's repairable. We know there's cap leak potential in the ECU, I wonder what the problem with the module is..
doesnt solve the light thing but

It worked on mine. My light did not want to go away after installing the Evo steering wheel. Even though I fixed it with the right plug the light was still on.

Then I bought the SRS module and put it in the OBD2 and deleted the code. It has worked Ever since.

It is because it has detected a code you need to undo with the MUT device.

 

[curt-s]

I was refering to what @chrysler kid was saying, about how the module goes bad. Why is the question I was pondering and could it be fixed instead of just replaced. We fix our ECUs because of common problems..

maybe nobody has bothered because the part has been abundant

Which device exactly? Looked through all of his stuff and it's just logging interfaces for 3000gt. I'm sure stuff works on any MUT2 but could you link the device that worked for you?

Thanks!

He has no longer that device on his his page. But he can build one for you, he build one for me separately and I think I paid 150 dollars or something like that. (In the picture it says more but that is because of international shipping and VAT taxes to denmark) It works for both 3000gt and Eclipse SRS and transmission the one I have.

I can confirm that the Autel Maxilink ML619 I bought off amazon for $89 will work on a 1998 gsx. Can't say if it will work for all 2g's but I'll wager it will.

It has the standard diagnostics you'd expect from the OBD2 port, but there is a separate section exclusively for reading and resetting the ABS and SRS.

I was worried having a 95 EPROM ECU might cause some issues, but seems like it worked fine for both modes.

I had a short in my airbag that caused the SRS light to turn on. I replaced the airbag and the light did not go away on it's own. I had to read and reset the SRS fault code. EZ PZ
Had that damn light on for a good year now and I finally got rid of it.

Hola, crees que esto me funcione en un talon 4g63 1995 AWD. Necesito apagar el foco de SRS. Puedes dar más información cómo se hace?

Hi. Did you change steering wheel? Or what is your setup ?
The srs light Can show up for couple of Reasons.

 

[natalmx]

Desconecté la bolsa de aire del pasajero y puse la batería sin antes conectar la bolsa de aire, se encendió el testigo SRS.
