You can assume that but hopefully it is just a bad bulb. Sounds like a bad bulb can cause an open circuit in the airbag system. Do a search on pulling the cluster, it's actually a pretty easy thing to do. One thing I would recommend is taking the gauges out from the front instead of messing...

Great video! Been thinking about doing the same thing and your video shows how easy it is. :thumbsup:

I had a bad ground in my Bronco 2 that caused a similar problem.

Mmmm, indeed... Made me feel bad until this post. ;)

Agreed! Just another looser with too much time on their hands...

Did you ever figure this one out?

My 2000 and 1998 V8's have the factory traction bars.
