Had a look at a bugeye wrx today that has its air bag light on the car has had sti seats fitted & the seats have seat belt pretensioners fitted, i read the codes and got 41 & 42 which im sure is side airbag harness's 42 =left 41 =right tried to reset the codes but 41 & 42 kept coming back, had a look at the seats and found the connectors under the seats did not fit correctly these were taken out of the connector blocks and connected but after reset still getting 41 &42 im thinking now the car did not have seat belt pretensioners on the original seats but side airbags as the codes for the pretensioners should be 61 & 62,could the harness's have 3 ohm resistors fitted to bypass the harness's so codes could be cleared also where can the resisors be purchased?? any help, advise or others that have sorted this thanks in advance!!

 

this has now been sorted 3 ohm resistors fitted the the wrx seat looms to bypass the side airbags (not fitted on the sti seats) then reset the airbag ecu job done

 

wrx was in a small side collision and my passenger seat airbag deployed so i changed them for sti seats with no airbag.i got codes 55,41 and 42 so i put a resistor on both connectors under seat and tryed to reset but the airbag light is still on?? do i have to change any sensors and module to reset??thanks
