Will my car pass inspection?

will my car pass NJ inspection with the red SRS light on, on the right side of the dash?

as far as i know yes.....obd2 cars will so i assume with the obd1 u will 2

Pull the bulb from the cluster and no light anymore.

Matt maybe you could help him pass with your magic.

I know the SRS light means something with the airbag, what exactly is it?

it depends its like a check engine light there is a code set in the computer and stored and u have to go into it with a scanner and pull the code. The code will say where the problem is, i.e. pass airbag, drivers airbag or a full srs system failure which will result in u needing a new srs computer.

o and rob u know i could lol

By any chance, is your reverse lights operational? Reason i ask is that the part of the SRS circuit and the reverse lamps share the same fuse. If your reverse switch were to short (which is common)- it will blow the fuse and also cause the SRS light to come on. Just a thought..

yea the car will pass. I know because I have done it before. You don't have to have a working airbag. the light means that the system is disabled for some reason and will not deploy the airbag if you get into a crash.

Just to stay kinda on topic, will my car pass if I dont have a operating horn?

LOL!

Of course I won't. How do I fix it?

Don't mean to thread jack, just dont wanna make a thread for something this simple

[Slainthrax]

Well I def think I will get that fixed then, I much like the idea of having a working airbag lol.

Pretty sure you did it already but I'm going to say it anyway, check the fuse.
If it is good, check to see if the relay clicks when the horn switch is pressed. Horn relay is locate in junction/fuse box under the hood. If it clicks than you have to check to see if you are getting 12V to the horns when the switch is pressed. If yes, than you have to replace your horns or fix the ground side of the horn. If not, you have to check the relay or wiring between relay and horns. To check the wiring after the relay, use a voltmeter referenced against the battery positive terminal and relay terminal #4 (refer to the relay for the terminal numbers). You should get close to battery voltage when you do this test. If you get about 12V than replace the relay, otherwise you have to find the fault in the wiring. I guess you could use this last test instead of check for 12V at the horn(s).
Now if the relay does not click, you need to check which part of the circuit is the problem If you remove the relay, check terminals 1 & 5 for power (12V). Both are connected to the battery via the horn fuse. Lack of 12V would suggest a problem with the fuse or wiring between fuse and battery. If either shows 12V and the other doesn't, this would suggest a wiring issue between the fuse & the terminal being tested.
If those 2 terminal check out move on to terminal 3. It should show ground only when the horn switch is pressed and nothing when not. If you do not get ground it could be the wiring, the clockspring or the horn switch. I left this for last because it is usually the most difficult to fix.
If it all check out, than you got me stumped.
