Seat air bag light

[DomDale]

I have recently put some aftermarket seats into the car, Sparco R100s. Having done this on the dash I noticed that the air bag warning light was lit up. I know this is an instant MOT fail.. I was wondering if anyone knows a way of getting the light to go out?

Apparently you can buy a relay which makes the ECU think the seat is plugged in.

Really need a hand with this so any fixes will be greatly appreciated!

Cheers

get a 3.3ohm resistor (m3r3) from maplin and put it in the connector. Sorted. There is a how to in the guides.

woops, didn't notice your car. Measure the resistance over the old seats and do the same thing though
