srs and seat sensor problem
maybe some one can help me with this, i just changed my carpet in the car and after everything was done i noticed that the sensor for the seat that tells it if someone is seating in it stays on all the time. also my srs light is on all the time but thats from when i changed cluster, and i already did the battery thing....thanks in advance.

I had the same problem when I pulled the cluster without disconnecting my battery before doing it. did you forget to disconnect the battery?
These cars are akward, it seems if you dissconnect a SRS connector or component, the SRS light STAYS on after.
Tried to scan it with MEDIC scan tool from mitsu, and no comm. I scanned it with a Snapon Scan tool the snap on guy let me borrow, and it cleared it for me, had Instrument cluster srs lightshort, which it wasent. Cleared and it went away.
So bring it someone to scan it, and just have them clear it. Though, I would also make sure, you reconnected ALL sensors and connectors

SRS codes do not reset with a battery disconnect and "standard" code readers will not even speak with the SRS system, I've worked with some of the snapon code readers and they will talk and reset SRS, but there should also be a set of pins you can jump/short out to clear the SRS codes.
With this changing of the carpet, did you use any kind of a blade? If so where? check those areas first.
