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.

AFIK, if your car was equipped with an airbag when it was first sold, your insurance company can tell from the VIN. If you are injured and the airbag should have deployed to protect you, you can kiss any settlement from them goodbye. In fact, they might just come after you for the difference in premiums and fraud, nice guys that they are ............ The Cap'n.
