I had sometimes off to figure out how to get rid of the air bag light with the code 0215 driver side rear (g177) resistance is too high. I clear the code and it came back right away. This one called for a permanent fix.

the driverside rear sensor

both of the sensors were measured 10.9kohm, but the driver side has the problem, I added 2.2k parallel with 10.9k and the problem goes away. So, the 2.2k stays.

taped it safely in place and put it back. It's gone for good.

Get ready for the snow, check all 4 ABS sensors and the rear looked pretty dirty. Cleaned them and I'm ready to hit Reno next week.

so you don't think the airbag will go off in a crash now?

I think it will, no problem.
