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. Airbagsolutions.com has the fault code charts to tell you what is wrong and how to fix it!

Working on the SRS is not a DIY repair due to safety concerns. But I will give you one thing that might work. Disconnect the positive battery cable and wait one minute. This is the time required for backup power supply in diagnostic monitor to deplete its stored energy. If the light does not come back on, after you reconnect the battery, you are OK. If it does seek out a professional to repair the SRS.

If your airbag light on your 90-96 Q45 or similar year Infiniti vehicle is blinking, chances are it has been inadvertantly been set into self diagnosis mode. It does not indicate a problem with the airbag system. Unplugging the battery will NOT clear the self diagnosis status. To do this procedure, turn the vehicle on (engine not started) with the drivers side door open. Within 10 seconds of doing that, press the drivers side door switch more than 10 times within those 10 seconds. If you did the procedure correctly, the airbag light should go off. If it does not go off, it means there is a fault with the airbag system.
