Ripped the electrical harness under the seat

[AN292]

I was moving my back and forth and I guess the wires got snagged and ripped. Is this a plug and play part or do I need to splice a new harness?

Got an airbag warning on the cluster now but that’s expected.

If you can buy a pigtail or connector. If you can not get one, just hardwire it (bypass connection).

Are you saying cut the connector out and splice the wires? Thats a good idea, never though of it. Thanks.

Just use a heat shrink connector and good crimpers.

Is that in the driver side or passenger side?

Dumb question, but how did you make sure it won't get caught and ripped again?

I feel like zip ties would be a great application here
