Has anyone had there air bag light come on after installing a Utec. I did the whole install myself and double checked the wire's behind the glove box and they seem to be ok, I also unplugged the battery over night and still unable to get the air bag light to go out. Could the utec be doing this ?

 

I dont have that....once in awhile I get the P1444 code. Something is not right....

 

Utec will not do it in and of itself... Chances are 9/10 that you somehow messed up the airbag wiring when you were installing the utec; pinched/cut/shorted... something.

 

most likely something got unplugged and the key was turned on while unpluged and left a code in it even if it was plugged back in. take it to the dealer.

 

Mine is on with the UTEC also.

 

blown fuse? uncommon but some times after having hte battery unplugged when you plug it back in the surge blows fuses some times

 

after i did the full tt kit install
my airbag light blinked.
just reset it and it should be ok

 

How do you reset it do I have to bring it to the dealer ? I tried doing the reset with the gas pedal and brake but know that the Utec is in the car Im unable to do the reset

 

That will not reset the air bag.
Here is how I have reset mine on my G35 coupe.
you will use the key and watch the airbag light. when you first turn on the ignition you will notice that the airbag light comes on solid for a few seconds, turns off briefly the comes on and stays on.

first turn on ignition to run position (not start)
watch the airbag light when it initially goes out, immediately shut off the ignition. count to about 5 then repeat this step 2 more times.

after the third time, shut off the ignition. if done correctly the next time you turn on the ignition the light should come on for a few second, go out and stay out.

If you dont get it the first time try again. It took me a few times to get it.

Hope this helps

Thanks I think that is my problem, I hooked up the batt. to move the seat back with the air bag sensor unplugged.

 

That will not reset the air bag.

Thanks littlegbuddy I finaly got around to clearing the air bag light with your help worked great.

 

You're welcome. This trick works on most late model nissan/infiniti cars trucks and SUVs. Glad I could be of some help!

I gotta try this Air Bag reset but does this work with an aftermarket steering wheel?

I reset it and it keeps coming back.

Will the air bag not work now?

Check here, just search air bag reset. This thread has how to reset it, and I know there are more. I just looked into this a few days ago as well. Going to try it tomorrow.
