New steering wheel and airbag light.

[moktabe]

Hi,
Once I get my steering wheel back and it gets fitted (not by me unless it can be done with a reversible screwdriver) will the airbag light be on with no airbag being present?
If yes, could someone help with how to get rid of it?
Read elsewhere ages ago about some sort of resistor may be needed. If so then could someone be good enough to tell me what's needed and if poss post a link as to where to get it?

Many thanks :up:

Is it an original steering wheel that you're having re-furbed? If it is you should have no issues with the air bag lights.
If it's an aftermarket steering wheel with no airbag you can put resistors in the wiring circuit to trick it.

Thanks mate,
It's the RenaultSport wheel from Ktec so no airbag.
Any idea on what resistors are needed and where to get them from?
Thanks.

Theres a sticky thread in the top of this section of the forum, with all of the info you need mate.

Resistors from Maplins buddy but as @Austin-182 says there is loads of guides to follow.

You can have it done properly if you know a mechanic with Renaul Clip - try Mick at Diamond Motors.

Two 3.3 ohms resistors from Maplins mate as per the photos below:

Apologies for asking this when, if I'd taken the time to look, there is a great post in the stickies as Austin - 182 and mossyv6 pointed out!

Anyhow, grovelling over :tongueout:
