just curious, how do you unplug your airbag? where's the plug at?

and you can buy the tools on amazon for around $60 if you want the dashcommand app, or even cheaper if you get the standard OBDII autoscanner. Or you can pick it up at a local auto parts store I'm sure.

klerk , I believe you just need to let the car sleep and it will reset by itself.

Hmm. Maybe unplug the battery and let it reset?
I remember that I did that before too and it reset by itself.
Maybe it didn't plugged back properly or need some drive and it will re-learn that the airbag is indeed there.
For sure I didn't do anything to get it go away.
