Airbag SRS warning light resistor 3R3 ohms (5 pack)

Product Information

Cut the bigger shrinking tube about half of the total length from the resistor to the needles and insert it over the two wires leaving only the two needles out.

I have been struggling to find information due to the sheer amount of different vehicles and all the results I can find are either for newer models or for pretensioners on the receiver stalk rather than on the belt. It’s a fairly basic system that simply measures resistance. If there is a poor connection, the airbag has already fired, a break in the wire or the airbag is disconnected, the resistance will be very high. If 1 of the wires is short circuiting then the resistance will be very low. Either way, the light will come on. The Right Resistance Hi. I have a 2005 Expert which has the airbag light on. It has the seatbelt pretensioners on the belt itself in the B pillar and drivers airbag only.Il aide au diagnostic d'un airbag défaillant, d'un ressort d'horloge d'airbag et de tendeurs de ceintures de sécurité défaillants, etc. If 1 part of this system is not connected, there is a fault with a connection or the airbag itself, you will get a light on. You can test your resistor first to make sure it suits your needs. It should be between 2 and 2.4-2.6 ohms.)

I thought I might as well try replacing the side airbag sensor at the base of the b pillar but the airbag light is still showing on the dash. Disappears for a couple of seconds after ignition but then appears and stays on. I tried putting a 2.5 ohm resistor in the plug instead of connecting it to the new airbag but light still comes on.

If your not sure if either pretensioner is functional you can test them with a volt/ohm meter as shown at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsOM58mBM7Y If this light is on, none of the safety features will function when required to do so. In a crash, none of the airbags will fire and the seatbelts will not pretension. How Does It Know? Because to measure resistance, your multi-meter “sends” a reference current through the positive and measures the resulting current after the resistance. Depending on the car model and multi-meter model, the reference current could be high enough to deploy the airbag, which could be potentially deadly or harmful (trust me, if you never saw an airbag deploy before, you don’t want to be holding it when it happens)!

Put some of the smaller heat shrinking tubes over the soldered portion of the needles and the resistor.So you didn’t know all this and your airbag warning light is already on? Don’t panic, they can always be turned off. Again it’s time to do your research online because, depending on your car, sometimes you can get away with resetting the light yourself by following a certain procedure of key-turning or pressing buttons in a specific sequence. For the most part though you’ll either need a specialist diagnostic scanner to do the job or will have to take a trip to a local garage and hand over a few quid. Steer clear of the main dealers for this – most will really pull your pants down on the price. Simply remove the component you are working on (eg: airbag or seatbelt etc) &connect the two wiresinto the wiring loom connector in place of the component.

It desperately needs to go for an MOT soon as it has expired and is parked on the road. I do not know anyone who would turn a blind eye to the airbag light being on. I've had a look under the passenger seat but plug all looks connected up and secure. Seat belt hasn't retracted and can still be used.

With this information, you can then test the component to see if it falls within the required parameters. If you use a push-pin, cut it so the two tips of the push-pin are sharp. if you use sewing needles you can just leave them as they are. Maybe you keep having an airbag light come on, perhaps you have fitted an aftermarket steering wheel, maybe you are tired of the seat side airbag connections failing. Of course, there are other possibilities such as wishing to use aftermarket seatbelt reels or you don’t want to pay for an airbag but you want the car to pass an MOT. I have read about resetting the airbag ecu, replacing it, replacing just the pretensioners, replacing it all. I don’t want to just throw money at it until it’s solved as the parts are expensive and also could do with resolving the problem swiftly, so am hoping someone can point me in the right direction to finding what the fault is and getting it working properly.
