I have a 1994 Toyota Camry in which I installed a power trunk actuator.  While I was under the dash with my test light checking to find a wire which I could tap into for the power to the trunk actuator I must have stuck the test light into a wire that belongs to airbag system because now the icon light on the dash stays on.  I connected the power trunk actuator to a white wire not noticing that this airbag light on the dash was on until my wife noticed it.  I therefore disconnected the power trunk actuator but the airbag light still remains on.

My question is does anyone know how to reset this airbag light so that it goes off after starting the vehicle.  I tried a few different things but nothing worked.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have a OBDII computer reader? If so, check the error code and see if you can reset it... if not, then I would take it to a dealership and have them take a look at it. Assuming you are using the light bulb test light, there's a chance you may have shorted the srs out.

Try to disconnect the neg. battery terminal for 15 min. sometimes this will reset the light on toyotas if nothing as damaged.

I don't have an OBDII computer reader, but I was able to extract the error code by connecting terminals Tc and E1.  The only code I was able to get was DTC No. 11, which is a short in squib circuit or front airbag sensor circuit (to ground).  This would have happened when I was using my test light with a bulb to find a wire.

Now that I know what the problem is, is there anything that I have to do to fix it?  Or do I just have to clear the code from the computer?

Try disconnecting the battery for 15-20 minutes, should clear the code and if comes back then its still detecting the short. You can also check all fuses. I would buy a digital multi-meter as it will save you from these troubles.

I have bought a Polar Start PS-4650 TW-FM remote start and I am wanting to install it in a 1994 Toyota Camry.  I am having problems with the 12 pin connector, because I am not to sure what wires should be hooked up.  If anyone has a complete installation guide for this remote it would be greatly appreciated.

I finally got the remote installed.  Works just fine except for one thing, the power trunk.  I put a power trunk actuator into the car but it needs a positive output to actuate the opener and the wire coming from the remote for the trunk is a negative output.  Is there something I have to connect in to make the power trunk work or am I out of luck?

You will need to install a relay.

I just found that out by reading some other posts on the site.  Someone else had the same issue and that was the reply there too.  Thanks for the info.

I have a polar start remote and wish to enter the programming options, specifically the ignition-controlled door locks.  I know you have to flash the hood pin, press and hold brake pedal, press lock to access mode 1.  Then what do I do?  I need to get into function 1 and then option 2.  Not sure on how to get into function 1.  Anyone know?
