Airbag light 850

I recently had my 96 850 wagan realigned.
The camber was so far out, that the steering wheel needed to be repositioned.
With the readjustment and the disconnect/reconnect of the wheel, the SRS light came on.
Is there any way to reset the airbag light/SRS light, without having to go to a dealer and pay a large some for a minutes worth of work.

Thanks in advance,
James 850

    James 850,
    You have me confused. I don't know why the wheel got repositioned, unless it was an improper attempt to center the wheel after adjusting toe-in. The wheel should be centered by adjusting the steering links (toe-in adjustment) properly. Caster is normally not adjustable on your car. Make the garage do it right and without turning on the ignition with the aribag disconnected whilch is what tripped the light. Sorry for all the great news but you needed to know.

      I might have not heard the garage correctly. It might have been the toe-in that they had to adjust. The car tracks perfectly, so I might have mis-spoke. But I'll check with the garage. Thanks for your advice.
