Bantam Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 2001 Honda Civic EX, 27,000 mi, the SRS warning light has been reset X2 by the dealer; the light returns steady within a few hundred miles of resetting each time. Now they want $450 for a new SRS. Anyone with a similar problem? Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SexyH22 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 if it was a facotry fault they would ahve a recall, when its reguarding something that could save your life, i would say bite the bullet, and get it fixed. the right way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SexyH22 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 talk to the dealer about a warentee. if you unplug the light and it isnt working, and you get into a car accidnet and die because you were too cheap to fix it, then what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then his parents or spouse could sue and retire early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bantam Posted August 25, 2005 Author Share Posted August 25, 2005 do you have a big stereo in it? An upgrade to a Jensen with a CD player, but no separate amplifier. I also had a keyless remote installed. Do you think this could have something to do with the SRS light? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcletten Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 ok, well my roomate has a 95 civic ex, and when he got the car the srs light wasnt on, but then he put the stereo in, and cranked it and the srs light came on and never goes off, he talked to a honda mechanic that he knows and he said its from drawing too much power at one time or something along those lines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcletten Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 yea me either, but he said it had something to do with, like the overall voltage of everything went below the operating voltage of the airbag so it tripped the sensor, something like that, thats how i understand when he told me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
