Fuck, no. "Production" vs "Service". Interesting. I'm wondering how the hell I got it working in 2005, except I pulled the bladder from my OEM seat. I presume the ECM is the one under the dash, one per side? Or is there an ECM in the seat itself? I need to re read this and look at...

Here's a short thread on what I did: http://www.s197forum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2348919#poststop

Yes, my car had leather and side airbags. I pulled them out, put in corbeaus, got lots of codes. bought 2 terminator plugs for the side airbag razzle dazzle, cleared those codes, got a bladder code. Went to junkyard and pulled a passenger seat in good shape from a 2006 that had airbags. That...

Swapping the bladder worked fine back in 2006, when I got a spare one out of a junk yard seat. My corbeaus were in the car for several years without a code, and the plugs I ought back then worked fine without having to swap the resistor out. I think the newly manufactured plugs are built to...

I have an 05 I brought brand new in January of that year. It was raced hard from 2006 through 2011, and has a lot of bolt ons. In terms of failures, I had the manual trans rebuilt but that was due to track time. Last year I replaced the alternator with a PA branded version. It's had 3...

DeadBob, it's been a pain. I finally cut open the resistor with a dremel and swapped the resistors to 2 ohms, and these work fine with two OEM seats I purchased from a 2006 V6 Mustang (no airbags, obviously). Interestingly, I get new codes when I put my Corbeau's in--the airbag code is fixed...

I may. I wanted to put a blowfish shifter bracket on to give me every edge with high rpm launches/shifts, but I haven't had time to get under the car. Now that I have the rebuilt 3650 I want to see if I can squeeze out another tenth or two. sent from my cell phone...

Nice!!! That 11.8 beats me by a couple of hundredths. Congrats!!!! sent from my cell phone...

I still think I need a 2005 or 2006 passenger seat bladder based on what I've heard from a Ford tech. It's what matches the gizmo for each seat in the dash (is that called the restraint control module???). I've had 2 electric airbag seats from a 2009 that didn't generate any codes at all...

**BUMP** still looking

AWESOME! Thanks for the information on the hardware/software...

Norm, as a complete novice on the curves, the videos really illustrated the entry/exit points. I can see it on the diagrams but this brought it home. Do any of these dash cams have the ability to interface with OBD2 to overlay information such as speed, rpm? If not I am thinking if the cameras...

I remember Ron Edwards doing a nice 5.4l build.. http://www.s197forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6047&highlight=5.4l+swap

If you search this forum for "ohms" and "seat", you'll see consistency in the reports of the "early" airbag terminators reading 2 ohms and later s197s reading 7 ohms. Like I say, I've seen that myself (see http://www.s197forum.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2126084&postcount=16 as an example). The...

Rightttttt, but observations regarding the bladder haven't been a problem for me with TWO sets of replacement seats (oldVORs 2006 seats and a set of 2009 seats) and I have measured several old and new terminators and found specific resistance differences. I can't explain it, just report it...I...
