Default 1988 944S Air Bag CHECK ENGINE Light

Just replaced the radio in my '88 944S. Turned on the car and both the SEAT BELT and AIR BAG lights were on, needless to say the big central CHECK ENGINE light too. Went back in but no sign of anything. I know my son popped the radio fuse when installing - any help?
thanks!

Hmmm I would double check all of your fuses and go back through your wiring to make sure you didnt splice into something you shouldn't have. The seatbelt light will come on if there is an airbag fault. I can't remember if the center ! light will come on from the airbag or not.

You may also try reseting the light and see if it comes back on.

http://www.clarks-garage.com/ has a procedure to do so in his Garage shop manual.
