Airbag resistors

I've fitted a volantech steering wheel and their airbag resistors which were very loose so I wrapped them in insulation tape to keep them in. I'm getting sporadic airbag and SERV light popping up, is this likely just because of the poor fitting resistors?

I contacted Volantech about this same issue previously and they gave me the attached which worked for me.

Hope this helps!

Just clip the bags out, much easier and more reliable
I would do but want to be able to back to standard for anal MOTers, living where I do I'm not blessed with a huge choice without long journeys

As above get the necessary airbags coded out with clip its the better option.

Assuming your worried about mot/stock steering wheel? Just refit and dont connect the airbag wiring up, tester wont know as airbag light will work as normal.

@DomP182 what did you use to sort the airbag light in the end mate? I’ll be in this exact situation next week
A big pothole, not been on since! Seriously, although I don't use it enough to know if it's solved longterm. Volantech suggest taping the resistor at an angle which seems a bodge as they just need thicker terminals.
