Which yellow connector are you talking about? Crimp connectors can be found at the places I gave earlier. If you mean the yellow multi-pin connector shown in some of the pics in the OP, that's was salvaged from the car (the seat sensor, IIRC).

You can find the connector (FSM will tell you the type), but you usually have to buy them in large lots (100+ units).

Go ahead and cut it. Very easy to put back together with a couple of butt splices.

Because they are different.

FSM has wiring diagrams, descriptions of operation, etc.

I know this is an old thread but I am trying it again. These are the ones I bought. Maybe mine is purple instead of red?

So I have used up all the extra wiring from the connector on the seat. Anyone know the size of the connector pins for the airbag connectors?

I'd solder a piece of wire to the pins. YMMV

Hey all, just wanted to let you all know that my '09 was diagnosed with an OCS issue, which causes the airbag light to constantly flash. I purchased an occupancy sensor bypass from Airbag360 and after a two minute swap and airbag light reset I was good to go.

That just solves the weight sensor right? I wish someone made connectors for each seats airbag. I have tried multiple times and just frustrated. I would buy that sensor if there was another option for the connectors for each seat..

I couldn’t get this to work. I ordered 4.7 Ohm, 1/2 watt, 5% resistor. Any advice?
