I recently had a bit of trouble. Without going in too much detail, the car died and I ended up replacing the alternator (reman from AutoZone), main relay (new) and ECU (with one from junkyard). Since all this was replaced, car has been running pretty good actually. However, the SRS light won't go out.
The SRS fuse under the dash (with the small yellow cover) keeps blowing as soon as you turn the key to the ON position. This light never stayed on or kept blowing fuses pryor to all the problems.
Any ideas what would keeps blowing the fuse? Thanks!

I would guess that there's a short in the SRS Unit or an open in one of the sensors. Working on the SRS is NOT for do-it-yourselfers. It can be very involved and dangerous.

Remove fuse connect bulb across contacts of fuse if there is a short on the circuit the bulb should be lit brigbhtly if short on circuit eliminate each circuit on fuse one at a time until you find which one has fault on when you find actual fault bulb should be very dim or go out
