Hey guys - I am having trouble identifying whether or not I would need 1 or 2 resistors to keep the airbag light off with an aftermarket steering wheel on my 08 Z. From looking at the airbag from the OEM steering wheel, I think I need 2 "male" resistors, which I found here:

Can anyone verify?

Thanks!

 

You need 2

 

i had an aftermarket wheel in my car and you will need 2 male resistors, i have 2 of those works bell ones i will sell you both for $30 shipped , they were used with my aftermarket wheel and only used for about 3 months then i went back to factory wheel so now they are just sitting here. work perfectly.

 

or you can make your own for less than $5.

 

Thanks for the feedback, gentlemen!

 

The Works Bell resistors never worked on my car. I tried also making my own by testing the ohms directly and no dice. I had bad luck.

In the end, I took apart the instrument cluster and used black electrical tape to cover up the blinking annoying lights. No bothersome airbag or TPMS light now!

 

hahaha, i had the same luck! cept i went 100% Homer J. Simpson and just put the electrical tape right on the cluster plastic!

 

So these resistors aren't a 100% guarantee fix

 

the works bell resistors worked perfectly in mine, SRS light never came on from day 1 until the day i took the setup out of my car. not sure why it would be any different in any other Z

 

something tells me you did something wrong, you probably either
1) had the battery attached when messing with any of the yellow SRS connectors
2) and the car turned on before finishing, and never reset the SRS fault light.

if you pulled the SRS code, you'd know which one was giving you the fault.

either those two reasons, or you failed to install the resistors properly
