I just put a aftermarket race seat into my xb and i was looking at the wiring under the seat and had a question. One wire runs to the seat belt harness sensor i know that, but other is like a airbag sensor or something because when unplugged it casues the airbag light to come on. when attached to stock seat it is shaped as a U with a peice of metal betwween it. the U shape has a magnet on the side causing the metal in between to put off a resistance but not to stick to the magnet. what is the purpose of this sensor? is my questioon or the purpose of the magnet resistance?, because now it is just sitting under my seat on the florr with no resistance betwween the magnet. is this bad?

thanks for reading

that hooks into the airbag sensor. When I installed my Sparcos, i simply ziptied that sensor (after removing it from my stock seat) into my new seat mount. I have no lights going on now. Hope this helps.

 

maybe its a seat sensor?

any toyota techs out there?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
