error code 3
when i try starting my car.....my airbag light gives me 3 short flashes (my car is a stock 1998 j-spec) so no CEL light on the dashboard.......i have read that the error code 3 is for crank angle G sensor.......if this sensor isnt working will the car start??.......when i crank it seems that it almost wants to start......then i see the flashes on the dashboard while trying to crank. Can someone please tell me what this sensor does?? and if its not working will my car start??
Thanks

check the connectors.
anyone know if the airbag light will flash codes the same as a usdm cel will. do you ground the same terminals as we do in the us? hopefully someone from over seas will help
