Default Dash lights are on!

My airbag light is flashing, the brake light stays on and so does the vdc and slip light. What can i do to get rid of these lights?

Reset the ecu by using the key turning and gas pedal sequence. I think its on the forum somewhere. If I come across it I'll post it here.

Trip to Nissan stealership, mine charges $80.00 to reset the computer on the seatbelt light.

Either way dealer always tries to tell me it has to do with me changing out a stereo, this is BS cause I changed out the stereo approx 2.75 years ago. Stealership always trying to cover their own a$$, but in the end they just reset the computer, yes free of charge.

Here i found the website with the procedure.

http://www.technosquareinc.com/350reset.htm

It says to use a stopwatch but I did it once without, I just counted in my head. I might have gotten lucky with the timing though.

If you can't get the reset procedure to work that way, you can "brute force" it by disconnecting the battery then pressing the brake pedal for a few seconds. Failing that, leave the battery disconnected overnight.

Better yet, a code scanner works wonders. So does Uprev's Cipher.
