| take the steering wheel off,
get a multimeter and measure the resistance across the airbag terminals
get a resistor of that same value
stick the resistor in between the airbag wires at the boss end
put the new momo on

| I always got taught to never put a multimeter on an airbag due to risk of detonation! | |
