Aftermarket steering wheel and SRS problem

Found this on www.clubel.ca

Ok, as most of you know, after you take off your factory steering wheel, your SRS turns on! There is actually a way around this...i asked around and Telly found a DIY on 7thgencivic.com, the dude put a 2 - 2.2 Ohm resistor connecting the yellow wire (your airbag wires)



like so, and put everything back together and it seems to work...?!?! i hope this helps all the people out there who are equipped with spoon, momo, sparco, or even ractive steering wheels....

That's not true. If you follow the instruction properly, SRS light won't come on.

Before you take out airbag harness, both postive & negative cable needs to be disconnected from the battery & leave it for at least 3 minutes before start install.
After complete the replacement, re-connect both postive & negative cables to the battery & wait about a minute. Turn the ignition key on and verify that SRS light comes on and stays on for 6 seconds;turn the key off and make sure SRS light turns off.

That's what I did when I replaced wood steering and the light didn't turn on.
