For those of you with aftermarket seats in a vehicle originally equipped with side impact bags...

NISMO will be releasing a fix for the flashing airbag light. I had a fix from a different manufacturer installed for a while, but it stopped functioning properly. The NISMO solution is much nicer, because it's simply a small clip that plugs directly into the factory harness. I've had it on my car for a few weeks, and it's worked perfectly.

Part number is 87619-RS010, and is available at your local Nissan Dealership via Nissan Motorsports.

So for those of you with an annoying flashing light, there is hope!

 

how much did it cost?

 

Anything for the steering wheel and passenger airbags?

 

Are these available yet?

 

Not sure if they are actually going to release it in the states...

I tried getting them when i brought in the NISMO Seats but wasnt able to... Maybe they figured out a way?

Once its out we will have them...

 

Thanks Jason! Keep us updated.

If anyone has come up with a solution for the steering wheel/passenger airbag light I would love to know that one as well, Thanks!

OUCH $60 bucks a pop. that hurts. will i need the consult II to reset it anyway? as in i have to take it to the dealer? i remember that this happened when i had my stock seats and the dealer needed to take the light off.

 

hey jason...
will it work for steering wheel too?

Thanks Jason! I'll be picking one up.. I will try it for the steering wheel for those interested, and will post here.

ill know for sure when I have them in hand...

 

jason any new on that chip
work on the steering wheel yet??

 

I get them in about a month and a half... then iw ill know if they can work on the wheel

 

I'm not sure if they have anything that will work for the steering wheel sensor. The one that I have plugs directly into the harness under the seat. To my knowledge the plugs on the driver and passenger seat are identical, so this part will work on either seat. The part is simply a little box with a clip that plugs into the yellow clip under the seat...that's it. Since it plugs in using a factory clip, I can only assume that this part will NOT work for the steering wheel without some sort of modification to attach it...I can't be certain though.

I've had the harness on for a month now, and the light has never once come back on (not surprisingly). It is a lot nicer than the blue piece of painters tape I had covering my flashing airbag light.

When I attached the plug, I put the car into diagnostic mode using the key on-off sequence, and then took it back out of diagnostic mode (do a search if you don't know what I'm talking about...you can get into diagnostic mode without a scan tool by simply following an on off sequence with the ignition). The airbag light went out, and it has been smooth sailing ever since. Yay for me...and all of you when the retail versions arrive.
