I cant physically pull out the curtain bags becuase of my stereo. not sure if i can even get to the plugs if its in the rear where the box is.

anyways, i want ALL airbags permanently disabled. the dash ones, curtain, pillars, seats, etc.

do i just need to pull the SRS fuse or what?

 

Remove the airbag ECU under the console

 

thanks for the info!

 

Hi
I am very interested in your solution to disable them all.
Does this resolve the problem with the dashboard light for the airbag/
if so, where is the ECU located that I have to remove?
Please explain it simple, I am a newbie with this stuff

Thanks

 

is this it?

 

bump.. need to know asap,,, trying to remove the whole dash, and i wanna take the airbag out, but i wanna make sure the ENTIRE SRS system is DISABLED for good, before i continue...

 

No that is the DSC lateral G sensor.

The airbag module is under the carpet under the ebrake handle. It is held down with 10mm nuts.

 

Wouldn't it be easier to simply pull the fuse? Wiring diagrams show the airbag module using F18.

 

I wouldn't trust that removing one fuse would disable the system.

 

yea, same here



thanks for telling me it was under the carpet, ill dig it out tomorow!

i normally wouldnt disconnect the airbags, buts its clearly not a daily driver, hardly EVER gets driven, so i dont mind not having airbags.

so by pulling this ecu out/disconnecting it, itll disable every airbag correct? will the airbag light be disabled as well, or will that still light up? (i dont care, just wondering, lol)

 

btw, what is that?

 

Yes when you take out the airbag module and disconnect it's ground the airbags will be disabled, and the airbag light will be disabled too.

As for the G sensor, it's for the traction control to determine the lateral acceleration of the car to activate the traction control if needed.

 

gotcha. thanks for the clarification.

 

Peek-a-boo.



Success! No airbag light anymore.

 

ok so Glen told me there is still a charge in the airbags even though the ECU is disconnected. That means they can still go off?

 

Just finish your wall build man, if you remove the ecu it removes all the sensors needed to actually set the bags off. I've been following that build thread on car audio years before I even had a mini lol

 

lmao i know, its not my daily driver so its just been sitting, dont really have much time to work on this car much anymore

 

NO

 

Bump.

Does this still turn on the airbag light on start-up? Then it goes off? Or does it not come on at all?
