Airbag light won't turn off

[RagnaCaT]

Scott i got a question is it possible by changing the squib to a single cable one can use a single wire Airbag instead of a Dual cable Airbag, I wanted to change my steering wheel to one with controls but the squib and airbag are are single cabled.

The two squib system is used in conjunction with the sensor on the seat rail, which detects the proximity of the driver to the steering wheel and either fires one or box of the squibs. To use a single squib airbag (and free up two wires) you would have to bypass the second squib using a 3 ohm resistor at the steering column connector.
