Omp steering wheel airbag wiring

[tommyhilla]

Just bought an OMP wheel and boss wired it up and the airbag light is still on. Does anybody know which way the wired are meant to go or have a diagram?

Have you put resistors in the two connectors that plugged into the airbag?

^This. Needs resistors if you have got them in make sure there is a good connection.

It's just come a fuse and no resistors. Might have to wire a sidelight bulb in. Apparently they are the same resistance as an airbag unit

 

[tommyhilla]

Well it looks like a fuse could actually be a resistor but there is only one. Can't imagine having a hot glass bulb flapring around inside the boss is the best solution.

You need to buy 2x 3.9 ohm resistors from maplins, less than 50p.

I must of told this many a time on here.

54p I think it was when I bought some Tuesday But as this guy said, works perfectly!

Maplin code: M3R3 = 3.3 Ohm or M3R9 = 3.9 Ohm

Eh?

No it's not. James read post #4.

LOL! missed that post!

Get a pic of what you have. If it is as I think, there will be a resistor in one of the legs. I had some of those airbag delete looms and one leg had a resistor in, with a fuse as safety.

As below, upper leg has the resistor in-line.

 

[James28]

Most likely what it is. You'll need two of them though.

 

[Austin-182]

This is what you need.

i just bought some off ebay and should recieve mine tomorrow, hopefully enough to turn my airbag light off!

Do this eliminate the drivers steering wheel air bag only? Or does this eliminate all air bags?

It eliminates the error light off the dash not the actual airbags.

I've fiited this steering wheel today but have no air bag light on and haven't fitted fitted any wires does tht mean my air bag light doesn't work ?

It could be that a previous owner has had that airbag deactivated- you would need to get it connected to Clip to check for sure. Saves you a job if you have an aftermarket steering wheel
