2003 CTS Airbag Light and the Stereo ??

[kissdaring]

well then why dont you help us out and tell us here where to go from here because i still have the problem on mine i always get those 2 codes irc u1000 and ipc u 1000 when the air bag light is on and they cannot be reset at all but some time the light goes off and then and only then i can clear those 2 codes what is your imput regarding this issue and is there a fix some how?
my guess is that the problem is coming from one of the buckles or the streeing wheel airbag i want to take a look there but i seem not to be able to take of the cover to see if there is a pinch or a lose connection

thanks

the connectors below the seats do nothing for me i have unpluged them about a 1000 times and same light is on.

a "u" code is a communication code in the system, it has to to with communication on the serial data line, either the sdm lost communication or one of the other modules did not see a 'STATE OF HEALTH" message from the sdm, it has nothing to do with your air bag components, nor is it a pinched wire in the component system, more than likely it is in fact the sdm module itself

if in fact it is the sdm module, whoever replaces it will need access to programming thru gm so you are pretty much locked in to the dealer

how do i go about finding that out tho
i mean the dealer here wants 150 just to scan it down here they are fcuked
you need a techII right to run DIC

im not sure of the capability of aftermarket scanners, being in the dealer we only use tech2 so i cant answer that for you, and im not aware of any type of aftermarket module programming

WILL THE TECH2 TELL ME WHERE ITS COMING FROM AND WHATS CAUSING IT OR IS IT JUST A WASTE OF MONEY
