Airbag Light help please!!!
Before we get started, 
I have searched 100s of posts and can't find help. I replaced the radio and the airbag light came on and will not go off. I have pulled the codes and cleared them with no luck. No codes that pertain to the airbag. I have heard some say that some wires may be loose but no one says what wires. I have searched for a schematic on the system , but ???? 
I saw and checked the big yellow connector but no luck. I have also been under the drivers side knee bolster and pass side floor board fuse panel area at the same time. I know the CF folks have the info cause they are the bomb. 
You guys have been SOOOOOO great with helping all of us Vette owners and I again say thanks especially to Bill and Lucky who have helped me several times 
. Short storey, anyone who knows the airbag wires and can ID them please help.

The airbag module is just under the radio and havc controller. Unless you know what you are doing on that system because it is dangerous, you might consider a dealer with a better reputation. You can disconnect the battery, then wait for about 30 minutes for some systems to bleed off any residual power before messing with it yourself but again, its a dangerous thing to mess with.

If I had to take a guess, I'd bet there is a connector unplugged. The restraint system connectors are all yellow. They will also have a safety lock deal on them so they don't come undone. I would recheck any areas you were into.
