Default New Additions to the truck but a problem

I recently purchased a tonneau cover and a hood scope and traded out my cloth for leather so nice, as well as the new dodge logo on the back picture below. but one problem ever since i switch my air bag lights are on. i tried to reset the computer by disconnecting the battery but that didn't work any suggestions?

First thing that comes to mind for me is the sensor that is in the passenger seat that tells if someone is sitting there. Are the seats new? or is the leather just a cover?. If you took out the seats to install the covers did you hook the sensor back up? If they are new seats do the new ones have the same sensor?

I would switch the sensors and see what happens. Easiest thing to do.

It looks really good. I'm just curious, what type of hood scoop is that? That is like 1/2 the size of the OEM R/T scoop.

What sensors are you 2 talking about? There is a plug coming out of the carpet and that connects to the one under the seat. i believe i just need a mechanic shop to clear the code. because the seat belt chime still works and that is on the same wiring harness as everything else. The hood scoop is a ebay special for half the price of the OEM one. i want a oem one down the road but i think it looks good.

The sensor under the seat...nevermind

If you just want to clear the code, do this-

Discoonect the POSITIVE battery cable

Ground the cable end for 30 seconds

Reconnect the cable

Turn key and start
