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.

My solus ultra pulls the same codes the dealer can pull. As I have already stated there are no codes present.

Forgot to mention, my cruise, horn and turn signals have always worked even with the old clockspring

IF your light comes and goes it's a problem with the cluster. If it's on and won't go out at all it's something else in the system. You need to have a DRB test performed at the dealer.

If your light comes and goes, pound on the top of the dash to see if it goes out.

Well late last week I got the light turned off. I just happened to have the muscular off of its mount and the light stayed off. The only thing I can think of is that the airbag module and the ecu are either ground or shorting each other out.

For what I care. The light is off not and it pasted inspection. Should be returned with a rebuild title and back on the road and trails within a few weeks. Thanks for all the help
