There are different SRS ECU's depending on the year. I'll go look at a sensor and see what can be tested.

Sorry, I don't have details of the early crash sensors. Basically they are just an inertia switch. as I said, diagnostics would tell where the fault lies.

Unplug a sensor and see how many connections there are. I think I have a couple of those sensors in my scrapper, where are you located?

Please remove your address, not good to put it on a public forum, PM me with the address after I look to see if I still have the sensors.

Have you actually checked the SRS ECU for faults to see if the crash sensors are faulty or permanently tripped ?
Also are both the SRS bulbs in the cluster ok ?

The sensors are still in my scrapper, not been able to get them off today due to rain. I will try when I get a dry spell.

Nanocom would tell you.
Does your diagnostics talk to all the P38 ECU's ? I doubt it.

Definitely worth checking with Nanocom, it should tell you where the fault lies.
