BUT it could also just be because you crossed the wires when you were testing them, so it detected a temporary short.
Did you see any sparks or smell any burning when you did it?
and the reason why your light isn't resetting is because you can't reset the SRS light by pulling the battery. The only way to reset it is by jumping the diagnostic terminals.
as always, refer back to this post made by silver streak back in the day for the instructions:

it may take a lot of tires, with the most important thing being that you need a good ground.
I've reset the light before myself 2 times, but the last time it went off I couldn't turn it off so I took it to my mechanic. He turned it off with one try using my strut bar as a ground.
good luck  |
There was no sparks or nothing burning. When I probed the wires "accidentally", because i din't know they were the airbag wires, it didn't even light up my test light bulb. Like I said in an earlier post I got an error code 11. I don't think there is anything wrong with the system unless by probing those wires it blew one of the sensors. Last night I tried clearing the error code exactly the way it is shown by silver streak but I didn't have any success. Maybe I wasn't using a good enough ground. What would you suggest as being a good ground to use?
