So? A little further background would be helpful. I'm all for brief replies, but need a little help.

Any car accidents, work on car?

Are you willing/able to perform electrical circuit checks and read flashing lights?

See following link for access to SRS codes.

DIY: SRS Codes and reading them. - Club RSX Message Board

Post codes and we'll attempt to decode.

good luck

So you checked for codes and got nothing?

Read/check into cleaning/checking the drivers side seat belt switch.

Most generic OBD-II readers cannot read SRS trouble codes.

Your seat belt buckle switch may be covered by Honda.

Check your warranty booklet. Seatbelts might have warranty of 150k miles or 15 years (that's in USA).

Thanks for the advice. I already ordered the Seat Belt Buckle Switch for $40.00. Not worth my time hanging around a Honda Dealer, all Day long..

Could have saved that $40. Seatbelts are lifetime warranty.
