Thanks Bob. Forgot about the seatbelt module. Mine was disconnected when I =
bought the car and I left it that way.

Victor,
Thank you for replying. I will switch the bullet pigtail wires as you sugge=
sted. I was initially concerned about one of the three green wires having a=
 colored thread and trying to match it up correctly.=C2=A0
I believe that =E2=80=9Cother pigtail set=E2=80=9D is for cars with a seatb=
elt warning module. Mine also has it but it was taped off.
Our cars are the same year and we=E2=80=99ve owned them for the same number=
 of years (21 for me), however, I don=E2=80=99t have AC or OD.=C2=A0
Thanks again for your suggestion.=C2=A0
All be well.

Hope this helps.

Can anyone help me sort out these issues?
