my airbag light is blinking and it doesnt stop..what could be the reason??

 

Why is this in the Check Out My Wheels section?

I'm sure a Moderator will move this to the proper area, where the OP can get some helpful responses.

 

ttt, mine started blinking after i took my seat out to vacuum hardcore... will resetting the ECU work?

 

mine started blinking for no reason at all

 

same here. just happened today.. anyone knows the answer??

 

make sure the seats are plugged in all the way, but i think we will be forced to have the dealer reset it...

 

for nissans:
How to reset SRS(air bag) light:

Open the driver's door. Note the rubber covered button located low on the B pillar, a button which is pressed by the door when the door is closed. This is the Driver's Door Switch (DDS).

Turn the ignition from OFF to ON. Press the DDS at least 5 times within 7 seconds after turning the ignition switch ON. Turn the ignition OFF. Close the driver's door. Start the engine.

If the airbag warning lamp is still on (or still flashing), there is a fault in the Supplemental Restraint System which must be diagnosed and repaired.

 

had one person report it didnt work, can i get a second for verification??? this one person could actually have a problem, but i want to make sure before i send him to the stealerships.

 

Turn the key to the on position and watch the airbag light. It should stay solid for 5-7 secs, and then turn off, and then start to flash.

To reset the light, you must turn the key to on, watch the airbag light stay solid for 5-7 secs and as soon as the airbag light turns off, turn the key to the off position (you have to turn the key to off before the airbag light starts to flash, or you must start over). You need to repeat this 5 times. Try to start the car, and hopefully the light will be reset.

 

^^ thank you, you rock.

 

I went through this a few times with the after market steering wheel I had for a while, and the first time I disconnected my clock of all things. If the light comes back on, then something is wrong and the car should be taken in... this simply resets and clears the light.

 

Here's the diagnostic mode from the service manual. It's out of the 05, but I looked in the 03 and it said the same sequence.

This has worked for me in the past when something was left disconnected.
