Cobalt wires from floor dont match Ion seats...
 

The ion seats I got, the wires coming from them dont match the wires coming from my '06 cobalts floor wires, causing the "service airbag" thing to come on :r:

anyone know if I can just clip the connectors and connect the wires manually to turn the airbag notification off? if so which wires go to which?

thanks for any help, I know this is a little obsucure of a quesiton but help would be much appreciated lol.

ORRRRRR how could I make it so the passenger airbag is ALWAYS on? can I ground something out?

******* I dont have my old cloth seats or seat belt clips either, I just have the new Ion leather seating, oh and how do you tell if seats are heated? lol is there a way to tell by looking at them/plugs?

You can splice to have the sensor connected or get the other side of the connector somewhere and wire that in for plug and play in the future

Ok so you can indeed splice wires but the thing is, I dont know WICH wires to splice, (black, red, yellow.... ) and I'm also asuming ALL Ion seats (sans recaros) came with Pass.Pres. sensors correct?

I obviously dont wanna drive around with that light on so I just need to know wich colours to splice into eachother and I'll be good to go :)

Depends on what year ION the seats are from

There would be another plug under the seat if they were heated

well I went and took the pass. seat out, under it there was a tag that said "equipped with sensory blah blah" so it does have one, however, after screwing around with the wires I couldn't figure out how to make it work properly.

So until someone here hopefully chimes in with wich ones to splice I just grounded the whole system so the pass. airbag is ALWAYS on ( I dont drive with children ever in the car) so it should be ok for now, but I really hope someone could give me a deffinite answer :)

why dont you just take out the sensors from the old seats?
thats what i did when I trade ls seats for ss seats.

passanger weight sensor from the cobalt seat has to be put in the ion seat.
i did same thing. you have to switch the seatbelts from the cobalt seat to the ion seat because it has the wires

i had this same issue swapping seats with a guy with black turbo ss seats. his had wires on the passy side apparently and mine did not, causing his airbag light to go on and disable abs or something ( :wtf: )

we wound up meeting up, flipping over our seats and totally swapping wire sets. right down to the plasticy thing under his seat that was a 'weight sensor' or something. hope that helps -

fotnotes: meet up with swapper, swap harnesses.

I'd like to meet with the swapper... but he lives 3 hours away >.< I just wish I could wire the stupid thing and be done with it.. ugh

thanks for the help though Rice burner, I'm just crossing my fingers that someone posts a pinout or something of the connectors stating what each wire does lol cuz I cant find one

Only the 07 IONs had the sensors in teh seats.

guy I swapped with texted me hes coming to a big meet in a week by me so he said he'd be happy to bring the passenger seat with him :) .

So I'll just swap it all over, too bad I cut the connector that comes from the Cobalt lol!! oops.... oh well I can solder the wires back together for that, just may take some trial and error for those three pink wires haha!
