Disabling SRS LED in dashboard

tuco · 2nd July 2008, 03:50 PM

Honda Accord SIR 1998
I want to turn off the led, but have had no success.
It has been reset by Honda, but I can't afford to fork out what they want to install a new ECU.
Hwelp!

On my car I took out the airbag and swapped the cluster to a non SRS one.
Now the car never had an airbag

hmm maybe you could take out the LED but then it won't come on with the ignition and then go out.
So if the WOF guy is onto it, he will still fail you.

what car?

Ok some people are going to winge at me telling you this but here's what i'd do...

i take it you mean the SRS warning light on the dash right?

Go to Dick Smith and for 65c buy a test bulb which is a tiny bulb with two small insulated wires coming off it.
Strip about 10mm of insulation off each wire and twist the ends.
Take out the instument cluster, and remove the srs bulb holder, take the galss bulb out of the holder and drill a small hole in the holder just big enough for the test light you bought.
Now take out the oil pressure warning light just a little bit and pok ethe ends of the wires from the new bulb under the oil pressure bulb holder so there is one wire on each terminal.
Now turn the oil pressure bulb holder back into place and job done.

Now when you turn the key both lights will go but as soon as the engine starts and the oil light turns of the "SRS" light will also turn off.

Dodgey as hell and you should never sell a car like this unless the new owner is aware of what you have done.

P.S doo0T!doo0T! didn't tell you this, I'm actually a random hacker using his login

Errr, whats more important lol your head smashing on the steering wheel in an accident and you being a cabbage? or $$ for a ecu.

Lol but honestly though, if you want you can take the bulb out, but its not going to fix the problem
