Light comes on because the control module is looking for the air bag which is not equipped on the steering wheel I just installed. Is there a way to mimic the signal? I tried to jump the brushes on the column but it just blew the fuse. The simple method is to remove the bulb but I would like to retain the indication that confirms the Seat Restraint system is working.

I believe it is againist federal law to remove an airbag from a vehicle that has it installed unless it is for non-street use or get a waiver to disconnect it for medical reasons(ie a frail grandmotherly type). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
