On my 99xj I am having issues with my airbag light staying on. When I bought the jeep three years ago it was on. I didn't really care to much then, but now that it got totaled and I rebuilt it I need it off for the inspection.

I hooked my jeep up to my solus ultra and it comes back with no airbag codes present. I have replaced my clock spring and airbag module. I have ohm'd everything out and everything is checking out. I am reading 3 ohms at the computer, so it is seeing the airbags.

I have checked my cluster connections and they were as clean as can be (I still cleaned them with a little alcohol though).

I'm I missing anything? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Chris!

 

remove positive battery cable and touch negative for 15 secs.. start it and see if it comes on, if it does give it a good whack on top of the cluster/dash..

not joking it may work, did for me..

 

Pull the bulb out.

 

can't, they have to see it go on and off...

 

Absolutely not doing that

 

A good whack on the top of the dash fixes it for a few minutes.

 

Wire it to another bulb that comes on and goes off at start up (Check engine, low oil pressure, etc.).

 

99s have a recall for the airbag control module. I got mine replaced for free.

 

umm okay... battery won't be hot you know..... (as you've disconnected pos)...

post above sealed the deal... take it in

 

Mine has no outstanding recalls...per the dealer.

 

You're right lol it wouldn't be hot. What does this do? Reset the computer/air bag control module?

 

Haha. Didn't even thing about that.

 

Any body have more input?

 

Touching the battery cables together discharges all the capacitor in the modules. You would be surprised how many times this fixes modules on newer cars that are locked up and have gone stupid for some reason.

If you don't want to cheat. Have them pull codes at the dealer. That would give us something to go off of. Otherwise people will just be guessing.

 

They didn't replace the air bag modules, they moved them from under the drivers seat to the top of the trans tunnel.
