airbag light and aftermarket steering wheels - Focaljet

**boostedbeast** · 03-29-2006, 07:47 PM

I've just purchased and installed a MOMO Millenium racing wheel and it looks sick. The problem is that the driver-side airbag light is lit on the dashboard. Is there any way to turn it off without modifying the wiring harness or the gauge cluster?

Also, the diagram shows how to hook up the horn, but it shows wiring that doesn't seem to exist on my car. I have a 2004 Zetec ZX3. Oh well, I can always use my finger!

I tried using the delete wire that comes with the hub adaptor but with no success. You can't just take out the bulb cause it's an led thats soldered in place. I just took out the cluster and placed black tape under the airbag light so you can't see it.

What about the horn? It doesn't really matter that much to me, but I have a feeling that when I install my turbo setup every damn light on the dashboard is going to be lit. There has to be way to turn those off via the ECM. Thanks for the help.

I know my screen name is "boostedbeast", but "soontobeboostedbeast" sounded retarded. How is that Powerworks setup treating you? I heard they are easy to install and run nicely.

The horn hooks up just fine. Just simple wire connections. I have an NRG quick release hub as well and I love it. It gets the wheel closer to me and it's really handy to get in and out of my Recaro.
As far as the powerworks.... I would recommend it to ANYONE!!! I absolutely love it! The install wasnt easy...but it wasnt hard either. Just take your time and triple check EVERYTHING!! As for running nice, you have no idea! All of my honda buddies love riding/driving my car. If you lived near by I'd give ya a spin... If you have any questions at all or need info/opinions feel free to PM me.
