I don't remember seeing a code 5 in my FSM.
Can you tell us which terminals you shorted? You should short terminals Tc and E1 on the diagnostics block in the engine bay, 20 seconds after turning on ignition. (Don't crank the car yet, lol)
This gets you the current airbag code. If you short them first then turn on ignition, you get past airbag codes after 20s. There's a difference. Get both if possible.
If you have no codes, the airbag light will then blink twice per second constantly.
If you have code(s), from the FSM:
Quote:
The first blinking output indicates the first digit of a 2-digit DTC. After a 1.5-second pause, the second blinking output will indicate the second digit.
If there are 2 or more codes, there will be a 2.5-second pause between each code. After all the codes have been output, there will be a 4.0-second pause and they will all be repeated.
If there are more than one codes, indication will start from the smallest numbered code.

Read the code again and post back, and I'll tell you how to clear it.
