Unfortunately it can only be reset with Star Diagnostics. In addition to your dealer an indie shop or a local enthusiast may be able to help you.

before any thing make sure the airbag on the door and all wiring are good, then you could try grounding the pin# 30 on the round socket next to fuse panel in engine compartment, if not there is a tool to rest on ebay<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
Good luck<o:p></o:p>
