Did you unplug your seat with out disconnecting the battery? I think there is a DIY some where here on how to shut it off.

the SRS deals with your seats if you have side air bags as well as with the locking mechanism that you belt into. It has a recoil that retracts if your ever in an accident to help tighten the belt towards you. What were you doing when it went off

is there a person in the passenger seat beacuse when ever my girlfriend is in the car she leans agains the door and seat and that turns my srs light on but as soon as she moves it goes out so i asked honda and they said when the light is on it means that the side airbags are off hope this helps.

By resetting the SRS light, does it just turn the light off or does it reset the sensor back to the way it originally was? I disconnected the passenger side plug when I took out the seat to install the brain to my receiver and now the light is on. I was going to just take it back to the dearlership when I got my oil changed in a couple of weeks because I don't want to do anything that would prevent the safety devices to work in case of an accident. If it puts it back to the original condition, I'll just do it myself.

so correct me if im wrong. my SRS light is also on.

after reading the DIY its my understanding that i do not need a Service connector. just a paperclip so i can bridge the two connections? and all i really have to do is bridge them and unbridge them in a certain sequence as detailed by the DIY?

someone please make it clear for me.. before i blow my cars wiring.. lol[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

I think all you have to do is. 1. shut off the car all the way. 2. push the button for the trip od. 3. while holding the button down, turn the car on. 3. keep holding the button until the light goes off. 4. turn the car off. 5. take finger off the button 6. reset light.

Just wanted to keep this thread going since I'm still not clear. The DIY says it will only work if what caused the light to turn on in the first place has been fixed. What myself and a few others are saying is that we have aftermarket seats and/or steering wheels and the airbags will not be hooked back up. How do you get the light to turn off in this case? Thanks

That is not to reset your SRS light. That is to reset your Maint. light.

Take your cars to honda. Or... if you don't like the lights, put your OEM parts back in the car.
DO NOT MESS WITH THE WIRING!!!!!!!!!!!
Just go to the dealership and actually ask them what they can do for you.

Geez.
