The pyrotechnic device is fired from the airbag system. If you simply un-plug the connector to it it can't fire.
I have no idea if this connector is monitored in anyway by the airbad ecu or what the implication is of removing it but I suspect it may be nothing.
On the face of it I think you could safely remove it and simply connect the battery cable direct to the battery terminal but as above I'm not 100% sure. You could always try it and see.
I would certainly disconnect the battery before doing anything. Thumbs Up

+1 with Craig here - it's part of the safety system. It should not be bypassed or removed?? Land Rover Addict

If you need a spare one for 2002-2006 type, I have a new one I bought to fix my airbag fault. Not needed etc.

was looking to split wires for the VSR i intend to fit.

looking again today, the pyro only works on one wire - which wire is that? or where does it go.

i have three other wires coming into the battery there, anyone know how to identify which is Alt/Starter and what the others are? Cheers
