aaulick Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I'm having a switch installed in my 2001 Outback to let me disarm the passenger-side airbag when I carry very short passengers in front. (I do this frequently.) Is there any consensus on where to put the switch? Did Subaru set up a nice wiring tie-in somewhere to make it easy?

nipper Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 Thats not an easy thing to do. Put the switch someplace thats easy to see. You need to use a switch/relay that resets itself after every start (a latching relay). I dont know if this was available from Subaru. Also i am not sure what it will do to the Air Bag computer, or how it will interact. I would assume your airbag will still work, and that the airbag light will come on. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avk Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 Factory airbag turn-off kits are available. There are TSBs with part numbers. But they cost a lot for what they are and, to get one, you need to apply for an exemption with NHTSA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
