CTScott... fellow forum members... meet the left rear passenger's weight sensor.

MGargano · 08-09-2009, 04:56 PM

...and his friend, the left front passenger's weight senor...

CTScott · 08-09-2009, 05:06 PM

Nice. Now the tricky part is to get the meter on with them connected. To do so, I take a sewing pin or needle and shove it into the soft rubber where the wire enters the connector. We should only need one, as we can take the measurements to ground.

MGargano · 08-09-2009, 05:08 PM

...and the right side front...

MGargano · 08-09-2009, 05:15 PM

...and last, but certainly not least, the right side rear sensor...

MGargano · 08-09-2009, 05:15 PM

Sorry... I'm all done gloating and ready for instructions

Look up to #151.

MGargano · 08-09-2009, 05:37 PM

Ok, so red lead to 1, 2, and 3 and black lead to ground?

Still nothing. I plugged all 4 sensors in and tested each.

Hmmm. The only thing I can think of is that maybe with the side squibs being open circuits (with the too high resistor value), that the OC is disabled. Let's hold off until you get the 3 ohm resistors and get them hooked up.

Ok. It might be a few days since I ended up having to order them online. I think those resistors might make a difference since the passenger's seat belt light is lit too and all that stuff is connected together.

LOL I'm really glad everyone's this thread so much. I had no idea it would turn into a 150+ post affair but I'm really enjoying this and can't wait to see it through

Figure out a way for me to mount the OEM sensors to the new seat so they function properly?

Since you have them off of the seats now, let's see some pics of all sides of one.

This is #61- right side rear sensor:
