Sorry for a new post, the issue is different now.

1997 TL 2.5.
The SRS light came on few days ago. I tried to rest it but could not get the yellow plug in the fuse box to come off. There’s a tab, I squeezed it any which way but could not get it to unplug.

I took my car to the dealer and they erased the code and told that if it comes back, I will need to replace the driver side air bag.
Well, as soon as I left the dealership, SRS came back on.
I ordered an air bag from a salvage yard.

My question is, which one in the picture needs to be unplugged to reset and delete code? I thought it is # 1.
How do I unplug it? I tried but failed.

Thanks

I tried squeezing the tab, I have to use a flat head screw driver next.......

i also have the same problem with my TL. been like that for months, i tried taking the same plug out but had no luck so i gave up. did you horn died out? mine did i've been planning on taking it to a shop to get it check but no time.

I finally fixed the problem, but that yellow connector may not be the right one. There's another yellow open connector ( not connected to anything) tucked under driver side dash, right below cruse control switch. I reset my SRS using that. As a matter of fact, that is suggested in the book.
My SRS came on because of a bad cable reel ( clock spring). It sits under the driver side air bag.

that might also be my problem but i dunno much about cars so im going to go try the reset thing today

kwee

i reseted the SRS thing but my SRS light is still on. so i guess i have to go to a shop

after you reset, did the light go off and came back?

kwee

yup, it turn off and then blink 2 time and stayed on

meazz1

this means something hard setting the code.... get it checked asap.

kwee

when you brought your car to the dealer did they reset it for you for free?

meazz1

They charged me $80.00 to scan it and told me the code. Yes, they reset it but it came back as soon as I left their parking lot.
