After servicing the driver side seat heater has an active airbag condition and I cannot figure out how to reset it. Ideas are welcome. It's also not the steering wheel clock spring, fyi.

You will have to run a diagnostic code check to see what has activated the check light, if a seat pressure sensor was unplugged and the ignition was cycled it will set a fault code, it may just be a simple code clear is all that is required. This will require a scanner with re set and code clear capability. Try this and let me know if you still have a problem.

Thanks Mark, I’ll give that a shot this afternoon and let you know. Thanks for your time. Just wasn’t sure if I would be able to reset without a scanner.
