Still got the SRS light....anyone
had any luck or new problems with this? Apparently Montvale is telling my tech that there are numerous cars with this problem in the Northeast and South FL. So far, have new wiring harness, driver's airbag, drivers' door bag, and seatbelt latch. Sure would like to know if someone else has it or has seen a fix...

It happened to me. This is what appears on my invoice (covered under warranty). It's all gibberish to me, but maybe this will help your SA:

I had the same problem, defective clock spring. Special order part took a week to get and they wouldn't let me have the car until repaired due to "Safety". I still don't know what a clock spring is but no problems since.

I don't think that's been done to this one...
but the wrench thinks he's found a defective wire in the next harness that ties together the two side bags and curtains. News soon. We'll see.
