How to turn off airbag light

Sometimes plugs got loose - check if that's fitted properly.

Check that fuses 18 and 19 are both good (located in junction block under cover at left end of dash). And check that the ground wire for the airbag system is grounded. It is a wire with an eyelet that attaches to a fastener on the left side of the transmission hump near the airbag controller.

Hope this helps you ??

Draining the Cooling System

• Park the vehicle on a level surface. If the engine has been running allow it to cool completely.

• Drain the cooling system. Remove the radiator cap from the radiator. Locate the petcock valve on the lower corner of the radiator. Place a waste oil collection pan underneath the petcock valve and turn it counterclockwise to open. Allow the cooling system to drain completely.

• Label and remove the heater hoses from the heater core. The heater hoses will connect to the heater core in the engine bay, on the firewall, on the passenger side of the vehicle. Use either the Phillips or the flat-blade screwdriver to loosen the hose clamps that secure the hoses to the heater core. Then pull the hoses off the heater core.

Removing the Heater Core

• Remove the heater core cover. Move to inside the passenger compartment. Locate the heater case. It will be bolted to the firewall, below the dash on the passenger side of the vehicle. Use an appropriate sized socket or wrench to remove the five screws that connect the heater core cover to the heater case, and remove the cover.
• Remove the steel straps that secure the heater core to the heater case. Unscrew the four screws that connect the steel straps to the heater case using a socket or wrench and remove the straps.
• Remove the heater core by pulling it out of the heater case.

Installing the Heater Core

• Place the new heater core into position inside the heater case. Be sure to carefully guide the inlet and outlet tubes through the holes in the firewall.
• Reinstall the heater core retaining straps, by reinstalling the four screws that secure them.
• Place the heater core cover into position over the heater case and reinstall the five screws that secure it.

Refilling the Cooling System

• Reconnect the heater hoses to the heater core. Slide the hoses onto the inlet and outlet fittings that extend through the firewall, and tighten the hose clamps.
• Close the petcock valve on the lower corner of the radiator by turning it clockwise.
• Refill the radiator with a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and water.
• Reinstall the radiator cap onto the radiator.

• Run the engine and visually inspect for leaks.

Good luck and take your time.

      Any kinks or sharp bends in the refrigerant plumbing will reduce the capacity of the entire air conditioning system. Kinks and sharp bends reduce the flow of refrigerant in the system. A good rule for the flexible hose refrigerant lines is to keep the radius of all bends at least ten times the diameter of the hose. In addition, the flexible hose refrigerant lines should be routed so they are at least 80 millimeters (3 inches) from the exhaust manifold.
      
      High pressures are produced in the refrigerant system when the air conditioning compressor is operating. Extreme care must be exercised to make sure that each of the refrigerant system connections is pressure-tight and leak free. It is a good practice to inspect all flexible hose refrigerant lines at least once a year to make sure they are in good condition and properly routed.
      
      
      
      1. When installing individual tubes, insert tube into core ensuring that tube O-ring is seated in core and not pinched.

Bobby,
Sorry you got the task of replacing a heater core. But never the less there is a fuel cut out /roll over switch located in the passenger kick panel and the harness runs up thru the dash. Two things could have happened.
1-the fuel cut out triped. Reset by pulling the passenger side kick panel and reset by pushing the red or yellow reset button. This should cure the problem.
2-the harness to the cutout switch was disconnected while working under the dash or pinched while the installing the blower assy. you can take a DVOM and check the resistance at the switch harness while disconnected from the switch. If the meter reads less than .003 you have a short. If not while disconnected check the switch by depressing the button and check across the terminals. The meter should have an audiable mode and listen for a beep. This means the switch is good. If no noise replace the switch.
Good Luck.
