When you first put your key in the car and turn it to at least acc it will self diagnose. You will see the airbag light come on and then go back off. If it doesn't go off then you have a problem. wink.gif

Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.

Yeah, i believe that would be a problem in that unit in your center console. That would probably be (i guess) what would need to be changed... It's the electronic "brain" of the air bag system.... Unless there is a fuse that goes to it that may be blown. Be careful with that though...

IDK 100% if there is a fuse or not, i'll check when i go to lunch. biggrin.gif
