What exactly are you looking for? If you're looking to reflash the computer, GM dealer is the only source. What problems are you having... airbag light on?

when key is turned on the air bag light flashes asequence and then goes to acontinuos light. I believe the number of flashes before the light goes on continuosly is the code to what is not functioning. I was hoping that someone might know if this is true and have the key to the flash codes .

When the system is powered up the airbag module runs a self test and the light will blink during the test. If an impact sensor, or its circuit fails, the module will attempt a second time to check it. If it fails both times the airbag light will stay on and the system is disabled. The blinks have nothing to do with DTC's. To retrieve DTC's you must use a scan tool capable of accessing the airbag module. The $400 or $500 cheapie code readers that some of the auto parts stores use will not access the airbag module.
