the forum froze on me... anyways this is my problem

recently my srs light came on... and i don't have any chair modifications or i didn't take my chairs out or anything... i already tried the srs diy light... and it seemed to work for a day.. and this morning the light came back on again... when i got home... i tried the diy srs light again.. and it seemed to work like the diy said.. but then when i turned my engine off.. and started my engine on again.. to double check to see if it was gone.. the light came back on... i tried this 5 times.. and its the same routine over and over again...

the recent modification that i have done on my car is.. apex'i rsm meter like 2 month ago... and aem sri like 2 weeks ago..

i wanna take it to the dealer.. but i'm afraid the dealer will try to punk me by saying.. that apex'i rsm meter caused it.. or the aem sri caused it or something... and mostly i'm afraid of the rsm meter.. cause i had to tap into the ecu.. and i'm afraid that they might say something like you messed with the ecu.. and they can't help me or something... what should i do guys????

any suggestions will be appreciated... thanks...

What? you're probably mistaking the DIY.

If the SRS keeps coming up on you, check the cables under the seats, they might be loose or disconnected. After you have verified that everything is in place and the problem still persists you might have a defected SRS computer. Replacement of it run around $500 USD.

Good luck.

had the same problem...

some SRS units were f*cked... HONDA changed mine like 4 times... the first 3 were duds....

so take it back... they have to change it...its a restraint system, they're obligated to...
