sorry guys, I did a search, and all of the information I found was all over the place.
But anyways, i bought an aftermarket steering wheel and hub, and I have it installed and it works great, except for the fact that the SRS light is on, and it is really bugging me. I have searched and searched and all the information I found was really confusing, no one said exactly what to do.
I already tried fixing it yesterday morning but was unable to find the right wire, and understand the srs reset instructions.
I tried again 2 times today and still can't get it, I can get the srs to reset, but I'm not sure if I'm putting the resistor in the right place, or I'm using the wrong resistors
But after further researching, I'm pretty sure I know what to do for the most part, I have to put in the resistor and then reset the srs memory, my main question is... where do I put the resistor exactly?I've tried putting it into the wire that goes into the srs system on the oem steering wheel, but that hasn't worked, I've tried with a 1/4 watt 2.2 ohm resistor (a guy on a prelude forum said this would work), and a 1 watt 10 ohm resistor (only other resistor radio shack had that was even remotely close). was the 1/4 watt 2.2 ohm too weak? was the 1 watt too weak and the 10 ohm too strong? or have I just been putting the resistors in the wrong place to begin with? I have read a few people say something about it being under the radio, but I don't see how that has anything to do with it, the wire I'm using goes straight to the airbag, which should be the right one right?
I just ordered a 2 ohm 5 watt, 3.3 ohm 5 watt, 2 ohm 10 watt, 2.2 10 watt, and 3.3 10 watt all of which are what people were saying worked (see what I mean by the information I found being all over the place?)
this is where I have been putting the resistors

any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance
