Help with INFL REST - Code 35
Folks,
Need a bit of help here on my 90 vert. Took the steering column apart to make a repair so I had to remove the air bag. Wanted to test the turn signal so I reconnected the battery without the air bag on to make sure the turn signals worked before I put it back together. That set a code 35 - Open INF REST circuit.
Got it all put together but I am having a problem getting rid of the code. The FSM says to:
1. Turn ign off
2. Ground K lead of ALDL
3. Turn on ignition
4. wait for code to start flashing
5. unground K lead for 3 secs
6. Ground K lead for 3 secs
7. Unground and wait 10 seconds and code should disappear
Problem is this does not ever seem to get rid of the stored codes. I tried various permutations of the above, like waiting before the codes flash.
No problems with the INF REST before I stated. Please don't tell me I have to take apart the steering column again!!! What a royal PITA!
Any advise?

Ok folks. Here is the trick. DO NOT GROUND K. Instead, connect K to A and follow the procedure. It worked the very first time when you use the above procedure to lead K connected to A instead of seat or any other ground.

Yeah I thought I had read that in the FSM. I talked to the stealer and of course he says bring it in we'll get it in. I hate to have anyone else work on my car. And really hate to pay their rates to do it.
I would much rather do it myself if it can be done. But like others have said. I'm kinda nervous about messing with air bag systems. They have a potentially expensive consequence from a mistake.
