Air bag lights on, was in accident, need help quick...

Hey,

Alright, I have a 2006 SS/SC that was in an accident involving the driver side rear. It has been put back together and it runs and drives just fine. The main air bags didn't deploy, only the seatbelt pretensioners and the driver side curtain bag went off, all of which were replaced. Everything is back to factory, except for the "Service Air Bag" message comes up on the dash and I was wondering if this is something that the dealer can run a programmer through and fix it. I need help QUICK!

on most new cars if its been in an accident with deployment the module would need to be replaced.

if thats not the case you need to check for codes, to see why the lights on.

alright, heres another issue that NOBODY can give me a clear explanation on. About the wires underneath the seat...I have a G85 model with the Recaros...Well, One of my SS Recaros was in bad shape, so I replaced both seats with Saturn Ion Redline Recaros. They bolt up perfectly (because they are the same seat) but the connection from the seat is a slightly different plug from the one off the floor of my Cobalt...so no, the wires are not connected because I can't figure out how to connect them. THIS IS ONE OF MY BIGGEST PROBLEMS AS WELL

Anybody? Anybody? Bueller...Bueller... Really, this is pretty urgent for me. I am trying to get it fixed so I can sell it. I am almost bankrupt....

You found your problem.

Splice the wires together?
