The Dreaded "Code 32" on the Airbag light!!

[sluggy59]

Im pretty sure by now that just about "everyone" is tired of this one!! Just bought my 02 LS. a couple of days ago. First off>>>>>Hot and Cold is a "Blowin"...with "NO" Codes when I scan using the "On-board" scan procedure. Second>>>the Airbag warning of "Code 32". I checked and removed and tested for a "Break" in the Socket....but didn't find anything! Horn and Cruise work just fine as well. Was "wondering" about the Passenger seat?!?!?!? It 'also" has the little "Yellow" Connector (which I took off and re-installed)??
"OR".......could it "actually" be the Sensor in the Seat (If there is one)?? With reguards to the Heat/cold...I pulled the wires on the DCCV and it stopped the heat...so I "think" its working fine...again>>>"No Codes"!!

Sluggy, please consider the environment before abusing our natural resources, such as the ' " ' quotation mark. We're all in this together.

Moving on, working steering wheel buttons does not rule out a broken clock spring. As I recall, there are 6 or 7 wires in the wire ribbon and presumably, two are dedicated to the airbag. One airbag wire can break by itself and not affect the other functions. It's just likely that multiple things will be malfunctioning by time the airbag light comes on.

You made me laugh out loud. I saw this gif in the coil pak thread but I wasn't expecting it to appropriately pop up again so soon, making it funnier.

Fills, but never overfills, so none goes to waste. I just hope it's the glassware causing that effect and not the whiskey. Otherwise, you might never stop peeing...

Clock spring it is then....cause the connector under the seat (and wires) seem fine...

 

[RigsLS]

They can seem fine but still not making the proper connections but yeah if it's not that it'll be the clock spring. I'd still resolder the under the seat connection just to be sure before moving onto a clock spring. I fixed my 32 with just redoing the yellow leads, soldered them straight on and covered with heat shrink tubing.
