Yes.

Measure the resistance across the airbag.
Go and buy a resistor (maplins) of the same or very similar value and place it in the wires.
Tape it in place.
Disconnect the battery when you do this so you dont set anything else off on insertion.

Job done.



I thank you !

I can measure it with my meter and have most values of resistor in the shed.
