Hi guys, just installed a Sparco steering wheel and need some help with airbag resistors. I knew the airbag was going to come on, it flashes five times then steady until I turn the engine off. Just wondering what resistor to use, car is a MK5 Ford Fiesta. Thanks.

Something round about a 3.3 Ohm resistor usually does the trick, you will need to have the light reset afterwards.
Cheers, so I just buy whatever 3.3 Ohm resistor that comes up on google or is there a specific car type? Also, how do I go about resetting it. The light came on before my MOT when I removed the seat tensioners, once I plugged them back in however, the light went out.
