SRS light reset?

SRS light reset?
I have a 92 940. My seat belt inertial real got stuck so I took it out to look at it. I cleaned it up and it works fine now but durring this process I unpluged it from the SRS system and then turned on the car to adjust the seat for better access. This trigered the SRS light and I cant figure out how to turn it off. I pluged the connector from the DLC into the B block and got an error code of 1-2-2. I tried pushing the button for more than 5 seconds but the led never came on and the SRS light remains. What am I doing wrong.

RE: SRS light reset?
Thank you for the reply wojeepster. The light that I have on is the airbag light (SRS), not the check engine light. I know the code indicates a problem with the belt tentioner which is fine now I just want to clear the code. I tried the same method of clearing codes that would be used for the ignition or fuel system and it doesnt work. I had a problem like this a few years ago and I payed the dealer $70.00 labor for 2 minuites work so Im trying to avoid that. Thanks for any help.

If you have a B terminal and there is a wire in #5 slot then you can use that method to read and clear the code.

For the location of the OBD1 diagnostic unit check: https://volvoforums.com/m_57089/tm.htm
I posted a full how-to in there. However, there is no B5 terminal as there is only one box on the 940.
There is a test unit for the SRS system but it is located in the fuse box. Because of the possible danger of setting off the air bags I am very cautious about posting this information unless you feel that you are confident enough to do the job.
If you require more info, ask.

RE: SRS light reset?
The main risk is accidentally triggering the airbags. Most of the tests stipulate no 12v. However, for the SRS light test you need to use a digital volt meter to read voltage.
These are taken from a manual so I hope that they are clear enough to read. I have had to reduce them to get them to fit.

you can read/clear SRS codes using a fully featured OBD2 code reader. Not all readers can do SRS codes so what I would do is check in with Autozone or similar and see if the rent (or loan) an ODB2 code reader that supports reading/clearing SRS codes. You can also see if a local indy shop will scan/clear for free (mine will). Last option is to buy your own code reader - probably run $100 for a unit that can do SRS codes.

which module did you check to grab the codes? There's no 300 series codes for the SRS module from what I've seen. A 223 SRS code says there's a short in the passenger side airbag.
