OK, so i bought the blue clip from honda, and i follow what to do from this thread i got on here. the light blinks twice turn the car off, turn it back on the light still wont shut off...did it like 30 times within 2 days and nothing. took the nedgitive battery cable off, and took the ecu fuse out for a min, to reset the car, nothing. still comes on...i have a few pics of the seats from under them. and im curious to know if im missing something. note my car did not have airbags in the stock seats.

driver side pics.

3 clips, but 2 are filled with what came with the car, the only im taking it is the airbag clip.

passenger side.



theres a extra gray clip on this side including the yellow airbag one..could this be the reason for it not to work and get the light off?

i need to pass inspection within 7 days of this month..or i cant drive the car. someone please help me. thanks!!

yea, correct me if im wrong, but that yellow one is supposed to be plugged into the gray one, it should be exactly the same as the driver side

DIY SCS Service Connector and SRS Reset
An SCS Service Connector is used to reset your SRS light, which every Honda owner will eventually end up having to do. The [FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif]dealer[/FONT][/FONT] charges anywhere from $65 to $95 to do this, I'll show you how to do it for under $10.00. First you need to go to Best Buy or Circuit City and pick up some late model Honda [FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif]speaker[/FONT][/FONT] harnesses by Metra. The Metra model number is 72-7802. Cut the female disconnects off the ends of the speaker harnesses and strip about a half inch of jacket off of the wire. Twist the wire together and tape up the bare wire, you now have an SCS Service Connector for quite a but less than what Honda would have charged for one.

Now I'll show you how to reset the light. We've allready done the 1st step by making the SCS Connector.
You'll need to find the MES (Memory Erase Signal) connector.
It is a yellow connector with two wires in it that is plugged into the back of the [FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif]driver's [/FONT][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif]side[/FONT][/FONT] fuse box, unplug it and pull it down. Once you have done that you can begin the process of erasing the memory. Here's a diagram for clearer understanding.

1st step in erasing the memory is to turn the ignition off and connect the SCS Service connector to the MES Plug,

2nd Turn Ignition on. SRS indicator light will come on for about 6 seconds then go off.

3rd Disconnect SCS service connector for MES connector within 4 seconds after SRS indicator light goes off. SRS indicator light will come on again.

4th Reconnect SCS service connector the MES connector within 4 seconds after SRS light comes on. SRS indicator light will go off.

5th Disconnect SCS service connector from MES connector within 4 seconds. SRS indicator light will indicate that memory is erased by blinking 2 times.

6th Turn ignition off, and wait 10 seconds. Start vehicle like normal and light should come on and go out like normal. You have reset your SRS light, congrats.

It worked first time for me. If it doesn't work first time, try again. The timing has to be pretty precise. Doing it with the connector I made is much easier that using a paper clip to jump the connector. Good Luck

I couldn't get that to work so I took the cluster apart and put a piece of electrical tape over the SRS LED. Problem solved.
