March 14, 20205 yr Awesome! I only have 162,000 miles to get to get to 500,000. @dripley, I think you're about 9 miles past warranty getting that air bag light fixed. I am I the process of building a house and a shop this summer - just moved to Baker City, Oregon in January. So I am hoping no head gaskets or VP44 before then, otherwise I will have to borrow your roof that you used when you did your head gasket - that is, if your chickens don't mind. - John

The chickens don't care. The air has been on since I awapped the clock spring got the code read and it said the front drivers air bag squib was short circuited. I guess maybe I hooked it up backwards. Though from reading the code I would almost think it should have deployed if it shorted. But what do l know. Would like to get the light of though.

I originally thought that when had everything apart the negative cable on the drivers side battery made contact with the negative post for at least a minute maybe more while the steering wheel was off. That did happen I know for sure. I was thinking maybe the computer saw it missing and set the light. I did try to clear the code that was set but it would not go away.

I don't know how it is with Dodge, but some auto manufacturers will allow ABS and Airbag codes to be read, but not cleared by after market diagnostic tools. Maybe someone else knows that answer. - John

If I do retire next year, 600k will take a while. But you never know. 12 hours ago, Royal Squire said: Curious what the blue wire is. My temporary remote starter wire. Got bad wire somewhere.
