Default Airbag Sensor Malfunction

Was wondering if maybe you guys have more information on this but I recently had a new aftermarket steering wheel installed, made for the 2017 IS. For some odd reason, every other part fit in the new wheel except the airbag sensor, so now I do not have one on the wheel, and my airbag dash light is on. I was told that I would have to purchase an airbag sensor that would fit for this wheel but I’m not sure where to start looking and which ones are different. Does anyone know anything about this?

Welcome to the forum!

Maybe you could provide a little more info so we can help you out.
For starters, what vehicle do you have? I'm guessing it's 2017 ISxx0.
Also, what kind of steering wheel is it? The make and/or model would help.
If you have a pic that would be helpful too.
When you say it won't fit, what does that mean exactly? Like the bolt holes don't line up, or the airbag is too big/small for the opening on the steering wheel?
