Angry Need Help!!!

Hi guys,
I really need some help here!!!
I tried to install the gauges so I took off the dash and the gauge unit. Everything was done. However, when I put everything back and start the engine, the SRS is on all the time. Has this happened to anyone? What can I do?? Please give me a hand here!!!
Thanks!

One more problem now.... errrg....
The clock is working... but no light....
Now it's really awkard, where supposed to be light is not light (clock light) and where is not supposed to be light is light (SRS).
Anyone has any idea??

Take it into the dealer and let them solve it.... if they ask any questions, just give them the blank stare and say,

"um chee a!" (in Cantonese, it means, "I don't know!"



I am assuming Mr Chien (Money in Cantonese) is Cantonese..

You have to reset the SRS memory. Whenever you take apart any SRS system componet the light will come on. Resetting it is easy, need to jumper out the wiring connector. The dealer can do it in 5 min.

Thanks guys, I will have dealer done that soon for me!

By the way, I ain't no Cantonese... and I don't think the dealer can understand whatever that "um chee a!" means since my best friend there, the Service Departmant Manager, is a 100% pure Anglo!

Hey buddy, lighten up...

where did CHIEN come from... I know there is a word on French like that, but I do not want to offend you.


CHIEN in Cantonese means 'money' It is good...

Okay, guys, thanks for all ur advices first!!!

About the word Chien, hmm.. I know what is means in Cantonese and in French. But it also could mean simple, modest and lots of meanings in Chinese. Anyways, I wasn't being offended and actually I really appreciate the help, alright?

Peace 2 !!

This forum is great. I forgot about that. I put in my TLS gauges last week and my RED SRS light came on today. Even though it is a week later that may be the cause. I am going to reset it and then see if it comes back.

What I did was buy a bulb from the dealer and replace it myself...
Cost much less....
