vinny is right you need to reset your SRS system. I just submitted a DIY article on how to do it.

There's review process, before it's avaliable. Should most likely be up today.

You sure the airbag is still there?

[Patrick]

i didn't think the CTR and EK4 SRS units were compatible? one has the computer in the wheel the other in the kick panel. I thought only Coupes/ludes/S2000/EK9 were compatible.

I have a EK9 steering wheel fitted to my EK4 without any problems. I just plugged it in to the original EK4 SRS plug and off I went.

Sorry Patrick I couldn't help, the only thing I can think of is the SRS unit in the EK9 steering wheel is faulty. Like Barefoot says take it to a Honda Dealer to test the SRS unit in the steering wheel and the car?

Ok the reason I am asking this is because I have seen eBay selling perfect looking type r steering wheels for very cheap prices but they clearly state that they cannot guarantee if the airbag would work or it’s still there, and at the same they sell guaranteed airbag intact steering wheels for normal prices. That’s where my logic is coming from.

Honda will charge $33 to test it and tell u what the problem is......
