passenger seat had broken wire

 

The connector underneath the passenger seat had broken wire right at connector to close to make a join. So just joined all the the wires without the connector. Does the connector plug really need to be in place. What purpose does it have

This would be a crash data code (hard code). The RCM (restraint control module) also known as airbag control module will need to be replaced or reset. MyAirbags.com can reset crash codes/collision codes. There are multiple computers under the passenger seat. If the airbag light came on because of that wire under the passengers seat. It could be that the wire was for a seat belt to see if you are buckled up or it was for the passenger weight sensor. The passenger weight sensor is to see if the passenger is over 30 lbs to turn the airbag on or off. The reasoning behind this mandate is to save kids or small adult passengers from being injured or killed by the front airbag, which bursts open in about 1/20 of a second. Children under age 12 are not supposed to ride in the front seat of any car or truck
