== == Here's a site that will explain everything you need to know about airbag lights and resetting the system. http://www.airbagsolutions.com/ This website gives you the procedure for diagnosing and resetting airbag lights. See if your car is listed here. http://www.airbagsolutions.com/vehicles_list.aspx On most vehicles, the airbag light should come on for @6 seconds, and then go off if the system is working properly. If there is a fault or a problem in the system, the light will remain illuminated, or flash continuously. If the airbag light does not work properly, some vehicles have an audible tone that sounds indicating a problem with the airbag light system. When the light is on (or the tone is sounding), the airbag will NOT deploy, even in an accident. The flashing light on your car is telling the answer you need. On some vehicles, the light is flashing a two digit code. Once you know the code, you can most likely repair it yourself. There are fairly easy procedures that most people are capable of repairing. http://www.airbagsolutions.com/light.aspx Some vehicle manufacturers accommodate systems without a scanner (like Toyota, Lexus, Nissan, Infinity, Honda, Acura, Ford, Lincoln, Mazda & Mercury) and some require a scan tool. Check out these websites also for more info on airbag systems and the light. http://blog.airbagsolutions.com/archive/2007/11/18/why-is-my-airbag-light-on.what-should-i-do.aspx http://www.airbagsolutions.com/resources.aspx http://blog.airbagsolutions.com/ Also, you may want to check out this site for information on researching your own vehicle for factory recalls!!! http://www.airbagsolutions.com/nhtsa.aspx THERE ARE A FEW SENSORS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED OUTSIDE DEPENDING IF YOU HAVE SIDE AIRBAGS AND THERE IS ONE IN THE COLUMN, AND YOU ALSO HAVE TO CHANGE THE SEATBELTS IF IT IS ANYTHING LIKE MY 02 MAXIMA

If you want to replace it, that fine, however, that will be ALOT more costly. I had my original SRS module sent in for a reset. I just googled a company called www.myairbags.com and they reset mine for $55 and shipped it back to me free of charge, I hooked it up and worked fine for me.

*Disconnect battery if you are working with the Airbag Module, if its powered and it feels movement, It could trigger the Airbags to blow.

How do you reset the airbag light on a 1994 Nissan Maxima Does one need to replace the module when the airbag is replaced?

turn the ignition switch to the on position then immeditly begain pressing the door switch atleast 15 times. you will notice once it begains to blink, it is much slower. turn the key to the off position wait 3 to 5 seconds and start your engine. it will start up normally and when the light blinks off it will stay off unless there is a malfuntion that needs repair in which case you should bring the vehicle to the dealership to have the problem found. i know that many mechanics say to use the key turning it off and on. THAT DOESN'T WORK! not only am I a mechanic , but i drive a Nissan ! save your money on the module.
