Hmmmm. Can you remove one of the sensors from the OEM seat and plug it in, so we can take some readings with it attached?

It'll definitely be a challenge, but I will certainly try

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.

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

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.
