Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) passenger side air bag switch question

[Texas Diesel]

Was driving with wifey today, yap yap yap so I put a key in the passenger side air bag switch and turned it to 'off' and said there! shutup. Didnt work, wifey just got PO'd and kept yapping, why put it there if it doesnt work?

What do you mean by "it doesn't work"? Mine works just fine.

I've seen this before You need a new switch.



P/N 56045177AC SWITCH, Passenger Airbag Disarm.

I've always thought that Duct Tape would keep the bag in place/quiet and no switch required.

Maybe they can swap the airbag with a 'newer', or 'next generation', version? I seem to have the same problem. However, the faster I drive, the more the 'switch' seems to work.

Get one of those shocking dog collars-keep the little key fob remote taped to the middle of the steering wheel, and mash the button when needed-will yelp once, but no more airbag for a while. Works better than duct tape.

Oh you guys are real tough on here, I bet you wouldn't

be so if your wives were sitting next to you

I love it though.

One time looking at a new car, salesman was making a deal

that they now had passenger side air bag, I said I wouldn't

be needing that as I all ready had one Oo.

Boy that went over like a lead balloon:--)



Picture this; Hubby and wiffy going down the road,

a huge muffler is crammed in wiffys mouth.

Hubby saying; Gee honey, the new muffler sure is quite. Oo.
