You could fit it on the little panel at the side of the dash that you can see when you open the door, it pops out to help mount the switch.

29-08-2017, 12:25 AM #3well got myself a switch from ebay from a skoda that fits in the glovebox. just thinking about the warning light. you think i will get on on my cluster
you could find the resistance of the airbag you want to disable locate the plug cut in there and chuck a resistor in thus disabling the airbag without the warning light....
i would have thought if you disconect the wire from it, then it would through up a airbag error in the process may render the rest of the airbags useless in an accident (whilst disconnected)

like rab said a resister will prevent this. you could have a double switch so it breaks both wires to the aribag and instead joins the circuit to a resistor so the car still think its there.

i know it did this in my vectra and im sure my estate is the same or so the garage told me lol not that i trust garages nowadays
I think in some (maybe not lexus) when the airbag circuit detects a fault it disables the rest of the airbags as the circuit has a malfunction...

just must find out how to put it in with a resistor so as not to kill the other ones

29-08-2017, 03:40 AM #8any idea what type of resistor i need. anybody have the spec on the main airbag front passanger indash unit
Rabster is right, any sort of error detected in the airbag system will disable the entire system. Im surprised the car doesnt have something fitted as standard to disable the passenger airbags. Most cars have this function
