Default SRS reset with paperclip

My SRS light is on after changing my wheel. I've seen lots of Acura and Honda threads about resetting with a paperclip.

Has anyone successfully done this? Or know an easier way? Sounds confusing...

1. find the yellow 2 wire plug that plugs into the fuse box,
2. jump it then turn the key on,
3. when the light goes out, dissonnect jumper,
4. when the light comes back on reconnect the jumper,
5. the light should flash twice. that means the system is set.
6. disconnect jumper and plug it back into the fuse box.

I'm feeling a bit paranoid after reading the service manual and realising I forgot to disconnect the battery whilst removing the airbag in front of my face!

Where is this connection? Is it under the wheel or on the passengers side....

Think its in the fuse board D/S and need to be un-clipped to gain room to work on it.

Yup it works. The plug is in the cabin fuse box. I've done it but patience and timing is key.

I followed this diy and it worked. You can also use pieces of stranded wire instead of a paper clip. Might work better.
