They're diagnostic connectors; don't connect them unless you're "looking for trouble", so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nipper Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 Green connectors are the diagnostic codes Yellow harness is airbag (can we say POOF) DO a search here to see if there is any more info. nipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Pin Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 OK, I am a dip************. I thought that this was my airbag problem on my 98 Forester and connected them. Now I have the clock above the RV mirror and the information display (temp, barometer, compass and emergency flashers ) turn on for 30 flashes. Then they turn off and repeat the cycle. Does anybody know how to make this stop? I have a ODBII scanner and have tried everything to get it to clear. I had the battery unplugged for about two hours also. Help?

nipper Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Did you disconnect the plugs? nipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Pin Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 absolutely. I think I found my answer in link 53433. It sounds like the keyless entry got confused and that I need to: Open the drivers door, turn ignition to on, press and *hold programming button*under dashboard. After 15 seconds the doors will cycle 3 times. Do not relase the programming button. Press lock button on remote if you have one. Locks will cycle 1 time. Exit programming mode by realsing button under dash and turn key to off. This button must be pressed if you are programming remotes or if the battery was disconnected and the lights were already flashing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Pin Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 That was my fix. Note to self, don't plug in stuff if you don't know what they do. Also, my button to reset was not in a recessed ring, it was just a small black button at the end of some wiring up in the left kick panel area.
