Awsome! Just did this on my 2004 Durango and worked like a charm! I put an aftermarket head unit in and I read online it would make the air bag light go on and off. Dodge wanted $100 to reset it but thank you so much!

WE WORKED HARD TO FIGURE THAT LIGHT OUT! ABS STUCK ON 97 f250/4x4 w/460 gas engine single cab long bed….. FINALLY, LIKE YOU MENTIONED ( 3 QUICK JABS ON GAS PEDAL AND … PERFECT, Light came right off!!!! Thank You, saved us a lot of parts house runs

Outstanding - No waffle - No time wasting - Just straight to the point - Well done sir

Have viewed several of your videos, very much appreciate the straight shot of info to help me with repairs that I need more specifics to complete. Will review your site for more info. THX

It worked! thanks God, only unplug the full battery for 25 minutes for Mazda 5, 2010. The air bag warning went off. Thank you!

Thank you so much! I am a 64 year old woman and had no idea what in the world this warning meant. Now, I can tell my shade tree mechanic what I need done to my 2008 Chevy Malibu! I really appreciate your taking the time to post this video!

Buddy your channel is always, Automotive information on a next level You r a gem.

Dude...you are a gem!!! The number of great videos you've created is fantastic! Thanks!!! I owe you!!

That was the bomb! I screwed myself taking the radio out my 02’ Tacoma. Everything worked as you had said. I had both airbag/check engine light lit! No code reader, no dealer…all I got is love for ya!

Very informative. Thanks!

You are a world of marvelous information. Thanks very much.

People are such haters, Listen up. When he pulled the sensor and started the car the diagnostic computer throws a code and the check engine light comes on. That code is then stored in the computer. The way these vehicle diagnostics work is, once the problem has been fixed the vehicle has to be driven so many miles for the computer to run a complete diagnostic test on the vehicle and recognize that the issue has been corrected. Usually about 75-100 miles. Only then will the light go out on its own without using a scan tool or what he did in this video to reset it. So settle down, The guy is trying to help people.

Just to add, R and R, nowadays your viewers can buy a OBD/ABS scan tool for 70 bucks or so. Keep up the good work, R and R.

Ya great method...it worked in the past for clearing check engine lights, but not for SRS light in BMW...

My srs was on my ford ranger it turn on because I told out a fuse an I was getting a code 29 but I put it back on an the code change to 46 so I know it had to do something with me taking of the fuse I seen your video an tried it an it worked thanks man 👍🏽👌🏽

Engine check error just happen on my small car. Try to reset according to your solution, it works. Right here, I would like to say thanks to you.

Man thanks!. I could have used this last week on a friend's Chevy van.

On my 2003 Saturn Ion I had coolant light plus engine light on dash on. I jumped engine temp sensor with paperclip. No more coolant light (I figured sensor in coolant tank hooped). Then I did your method for check engine light it worked, but not for long. I told my mechanic. He said f... it. It runs perfectly anyway. I got the car for free, but I rebuilt it. It should last me 500,000 miles. I maintain my vehicles very well. But, I'm not spending money locating the cause of f...... check engine light at a garage. Thanks for video. David Alberta

Wish I had a man like you for my car 😊

Great information, thank you! For all y'all who are saying that clearing the ABS light doesn't fix the problem; ...y'all really don't listen very well. This process is how to clear the warning lights AFTER you've fixed the problem. He says you still need to fix the problem; this is just how to clear the lights if they remain on after you've fixed it. If there's still an ABS problem, THEN you will know a problem still exists. It's just a tool for troubleshooting and clearing false information out of the computer. He also says it's not going to work all the time or on all vehicles. But hey, it's a good start to avoid paying buku bucks if you can do it yourself. If it doesn't work, THEN go pay someone to clear it.

awesome dude - this will come handy.

There is some gray zones with the light may or may not go away when you fix the problem. But i can say one thing i had a broke abs sensor on my 1997 mitsubishi l200 strada. I did not fix the problem . AND IT DID WORK 😁 nice trick thanks man. 👌

great info. thank you

Great Vid! Helpful as always, keep it up man!

Very informative bro thank u 👍🏻

Thank you so much bud I've been trying to figure it out for some time lol

Thank you for all your good videos. I pulled out the AC control unit right under the radio on my 2001 Volvo S80. The SRS airbag urgent service is on now. If I drive it for about 50 miles, would that clear the code?

RNW deserves 2M subs by now., His very knowledgeable auto mechanic!

Execellent video mate. Any ideas how to get rid of VSC warning light on a 2000 Lexus gs300 . Thanks.

Good video ! 25 minutes, right ! thanks.

Thank you! Very helpful video and it works!

Great content and great videos keep on making them 👏. I got one question though, have you ever done a video on dodge Mopar concerning the "no sense bus" codes. I got 2 rams a 99 and 01 and both of them suffer from the same problem:(

Thanks for your info.

Great video, thank you for posting it.

i just did, it worked as magic, I took me like 4 tries. thanks.

KNOW *THIS* BEFORE YOU DISCONNECT THE BATTERY! On some vehicles with radio *theft lock* active, like on a GM, your car radio will be *LOCKED OUT* if the battery is disconnected. If this happens and you don't know the unlock code, *you must go pay a DEALER to run your VIN through their computer to retrieve the UNLOCK CODE.*

Thanks it worked

Nice great tips thanks

Great tip. thks

awesome vid! i just changed my abs sensor. ill try this out tomo since my abs light is still on

Thanks fella. Now I know how to does some more electrical car STUFF. Good day too. vf

Nice job nice work

I’m gona try it hop it works

Good job thanks

Thanks for the info. Cheers

GREAT JOB

Removing check engine light without scanner trick was something new 2 me. Well done, but the best idea is get under 50 box buy at online even used on at ebay and get the code, general idea, NOT exactly what are all the problems are, N then simply reset. After that use retrieved code 2 fix underlying problems.

I love you bro

My favorite how to fix automotive channel! More Subaru videos! ;)

Do u have to connect the 2 cables together ?

very interesting

Very helpful ✔️ Thx ‼️

You are my hero!

Salute to you sir

Thank you my man

Thank you for this video,I'm going out to try to reset the airbag light.

I have two batteries in my car, this sounds like a great idea! I think I'll do one at a time :)

it works in honda accord 96 plsss :D thanks

I think I've just become your 600k subscriber :-)))

Clean the battery terminals and the cable ends too.

USEFULL

Thank a lot .. how bout for isuzu surplus truck how to fix this ?

Hi, I like your videos. May I suggest wearing a mic on you, when farther from the camera to not get the echo from the garage.

You are great 👍🏻

very good

Super sir

Thank You!

After replacing deployed airbags, will this technique erase "hard" SRS air bag crash codes?

Look people. On some cars the error will not just go away once you plug that back in. And secondly. If this method is not working for you. It's not that it doesn't work. It's most likely that you actually have something that needs fixed. Can be small or something big. This is basically just checking to see if your car picked up a bad reading and nothing really is wrong. But i'm not really sure why he clamped the two together. Unless that was to make sure they didn't fall back into contact with the battery connecters.

I have a Holden VY Calais, I run out of rego tonight and need a pink slip today. Will taking the battery connectors off and joining them up for 30 minutes work on my car to remove the air bag alarm or will the computer store it and display it after being re connected ? I'm asking because my husband is at work and i'll be rummaging through the garage for the right tools to do it myself if I know it works....Thanks

This is an obd2 system. Works sometimes. Light comes back on if you didn't correct the problem. Do not do this on a CAN system. When you hook the battery cables back up to the battery this causes a voltage spike. Could wipe out a pcm or bcm or any other control module. CAN started in 05. On every vehicle sold around the world since 08. Go buy a code reader/eraser $60. Hell of a lot cheaper than replacing a powertrain control module or body control module.

You might have to enter a code in your radio to get it to work again. Before you do this, find out if you do. Either in your manual, where the code should have been entered, or on line. It can be very difficult and expensive to find out the code so be aware of it before you do anything! I just go by any large parts store or a mechanic friend and have them read or reset the codes. If you fix the problem the code will reset by itself but may require you to drive a little bit til a full diagnostics is done. Resetting the code doesn't prevent it from coming back again. If the problem isn't fixed as soon as diagnostics is run by the car, it will return. I've found that the people at the parts store may or may not reset the code. They have done it sometimes but other times they say it's against company policy. Nothing is going to be harmed by resetting but also nothing will be corrected either. I've heard that some dealer's will do this to get a vehicle through an auction. Unscrupulous but done. If you buy from an auction, you should realize it's probably a car a dealer didn't want to sell because it's not popular enough, rougher body, too old for them (trade in) or there's hidden problems you won't be able to find until you get possession of it. You are very limited on what you can do at the inspection. Guaranteed if it's cheap to fix and a popular vehicle in decent shape, you won't find a dealer selling it across the auction floor, especially if you have to go to one of the public auction sales. Often public auctions are the places dealer's sell cars that other dealers didn't want in the regular auction. You can usually start the vehicle, maybe move it a few feet forward or back but no real "checking it out" allowed.

Will this work with a 2004 vw polo please Thankyou great video

Love the channel!..I have a 2002 honda accord with 3.0 auto that was hit in front end. I fixed all damaged except air bags.My problem is NOW THE HEADLIGHTS FLASH AND AFTER THE CAR WARMS UP OR I PRESS AND RELEASE THE GAS PEDAL THE CAR WILL NOT KEEP A STEADY IDLE. I HAVE HOOKED IT UP TO SCANNER AND NO CODES COME UP. I CANT FIND ANYTHING ON INTERNET TO HELP ME. DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS THAT I COULD TRY....

I have 2 comments... first, thanks for taking the time to make this video! second... I had my sound off at first and the closed caption was on and everytime "check engine light" was said the closed caption said something about CHICKEN! one time was chicken jelly and then chicken delight... anyway, it gave me a laugh and helped me out... so thanks!!

Great video 👍 what is the cable did you disconnected, before you disconnected the battery. Thank you for your information.

I had a slight collision (bumper was only part damaged) the service air bag code popped up. thing is though, the code won't clear even after resetting with a scanner. What are your thoughts on how to clear this code? don't wanna spend tons of money going to dealer. thanks in advance

Do u know anything about security mode or related ..my Audi a6 Starts and shots of right away ..

Will it work on a Volkswagen Jetta

Can I use this method to clear the fault warning on my Peugeot ECU?

good job. Im going to try it. Hope it works for me too.

What part did you disconnect before the battery?

I chance my abs censor and traction control light still on traction control and abs light is on I can not found out what’s go and on 07 Silverado help please

also I have my EMERGENCY BRAKE & my ABS LIGHTS ON, but someone told me a long time ago that if your check engine light just stays one you are ok,cause it's PRE-SET to come on @ a certain milage,but if it's blinks on/off then you have an issue. On my car; a 1994 Olds Cutlass Supreme S the battery is tucked under my windshield washer filler & it's hard to get at

Hello, this method works for Nissan March 2013? The car has the ABS light on all the time after change a front wheel. Any suggestions? Thanks

It will be enough to just disconnect the the positive terminal tha suppy energy to the main fuse box? I did already like this, check connectors, car was disconnected for 30 min. I turn one again, and airbag light is still there. Someone have some suggestion?

will it work on lexus RX300?

This method also works for oil change lights. A car I once worked on would throw a light every 5000 miles or so asking for an oil change, regardless of whether one was actually done or not.

Dear could you please let me know where is ABS sensor located and how to clean it up, thanks

what if the i have it checked by computer scanner and have done everything to take it off but still not coming off. As i know my converter is bad but that code comes up with or without engine light on. i have a 2004 honda accord but with a 2010 cluster dash? HELP!?

Will this method work on gm cars? Specifically 98-02 fbodies?

I have a 02 Jeep liberty with Airbag light on , with no code ? Checked connectors they seem good. Any ideas on direction I should go?. Thanks

Hello--after joining battery cables together just use a jumper cable to join? Can i use c lamp lighted but firmly attached? Thank you for your help
