How to fix nissan airbag light when key reprogramming doesn't work

How to fix the Passenger airbag light when key reprogramming does not work. I show you all the parts associated with the problem and where they are located. This video is of a 2006 nissan altima however it works for multiple nissan cars and trucks made from 2002-2010. Notice that these cars are not covered under the current altima airbag recall even though the manufacture of the parts is the same as included in the recall and that the symptoms are exactly the same as the cars listed on the recall. You will need a new airbag sensor. The dealer wants over $300 for the sensor but I got one from the junkyard for 25 bucks. Leave any questions and I will respond ASAP. Thanks for watching.

Things really do happen for a reason ...I just checked out your KZbin channel after you made a comment to me about the Boss Katana app for your iPhone and wouldn't you know my buddy Tony was stumped on his Nissan airbag light(for weeks)..your video just made his life a lot easier..thanks bro I also replied to your comment about the Boss Katana app and I found 2 that should work for you..don't forget that you will need a OTG and USB chord...I try to let everyone know about the phone hookup because like I said it's so much easier than hooking up to a computer or lugging a laptop around..they actually give you options that the BTS doesn't have..weird but I like it

[@dannyry]

Matt, if this is at all possible can you upload or provide a step by step about what you got from the Junkyard and how you went about doing this? This is a shot in the dark for 2+ y/o vid but I'm desperate for my 2009 Altima.

[@jamezwoodz9217]

Thank you. I did the same

[@built2shred2010]

[@johannordstrom82]

built2shred2010 Would be great if you could re-upload it, or upload it to some other video sharing site like Vimeo and link from this video :) Cheers!

Where exactly is the box under the seat? I am looking for one but cannot find it.

[@Jenniemusic1]

Can u upload videos how to replace this parts please

[@FS-pp3by]

Are you able to send or post a video of the process of swapping out the part?

[@batesmt25]

Good info. Same issue with my 2006 Nissan Versa. Dealer informed me it would be $4250 to replace the passenger seat. That is not happening...

[@mattwood5493]

batesmt25 yea they are rip off artist.. junkyard is your best friend

[@Christs_Sargeant]

I have an airbag light situation with my 1997 Nissan Maxima and I'm wondering if you know where I could find the impact sensors in the front bumper because I've tried all the other methods like the door switch trick, the ignition switch trick even trying to look at the connections under my seats with no success so people are telling me my last option is to check the front impact sensors for the airbags

[@rickywebster2879]

I can't find your other vid bro, but I would love to see how to install the bladder and other part. I'm also interested in knowing would it matter if the seat you retrieved the parts from had blown bags or not. Please respond when you can thanks a lot!

[@Markokk888]

can you somehow override it ? or put a switch to manually turn the airbag on or off for the passenger ?

[@Josereyes-we5ku]

Hola cuando se explota la bolsa de aire cuales partes hay que remplazar para ponerla a funcionar nuevamente

[@randy1ization]

I do the key on key off reset procedure and it turns the light off, and stays of, until someone sits in passenger seat. there is a co called airbag360 that sells a bypass . it will make the pass airbag go off in any collision

[@frankj19758]

Can you upload the video on how to replace these parts? This may help my 2010 Nissan Versa S HB with the flashing air bag light.

[@mattwood5493]

frankj19758 sorry I have tried a couple times but the video got corrupted. On the Altima the box was under the passenger seat.. unplugged that and had to take the skin off the car seat.. so I took off all the fabrics and pulled it back and the bladder portion was on the seat portion after I took the fabric skin off

[@VenkataAmirineni]

were you able to upload the 2nd video again? also do you know if the same company makes the part for maximas? I am having hardtime finding the info online.

[@mattwood5493]

Venkata Amirineni sorry the second vid apparently KZbin doesn’t like to upload it for some reason best place I have found is the junkyards and its cheap there as well

[@ahungalla22]

how to fix if airbag light on without flashing

[@randy1ization]

my 05 frontier throws the red airbag light blinking as soon as someone sits in the passenger seat.

[@life_while_we_dream]

Thanks, very useful, could you tell me where did you buy the parts, the web site?

[@mattwood5493]

Thomas Gomez I actually got them at a junkyard, tore the heck out of the seat but got both parts lol. Online they are lot more. At junkyard maybe 20 bucks

[@matthewgorgoglione5492]

Unplug the water lineturn sensor upside-down, clean any rust on polished ball in sensor and reinstall, it's just too much work for a dealership 🙋🏁

[@vincentodonnell7967]

Matt Gorgoglione I currently have the passenger seat out of my 15 frontier. I am having the opposite issue of most people, my pass air bag light is only coming on when turning the key to the on position for about 7 seconds, then will not ever turn back on after. My red air bag dash light blinks 2 seconds on 2 off. Think unplugging the water line like u mentioned and cleaning will help fix my problem??

[@matthewgorgoglione5492]

No the videos good , there's a sensor right at foot well next to bottom of mid door when shut, take that floor step gaurd or carpet off and you might have just spilled a drink or coffee got on another differ sensor 🔧😷🏁☕

[@matthewgorgoglione5492]

There's also were the seatbelt plugs in it's really a airbag nightmare until you find elm Street 🍻

[@matthewgorgoglione5492]

This is why you would want to scan for airbag specific codes so there's no wasted time

[@vincentodonnell7967]

Matt Gorgoglione I will have to look to see if I can see any. Is there any way I can get your email to send you pictures of how my frontier is set up and u may be able to direct me? I’d REALLY appreciate it! Mine is [e-mail]

[@newworld86]

My nissan 2013 the airbag light stays on but when someone sitting on it turns off. Is it the sensor ? Tnx

[@rsholland2949]

I would like to see the video that shows how to take the seat bladder and sensor apart and replace it. Let me know if you could email it to me or where I can get the video. I can provide my email, if you are willing to send it to me. Would really appreciate it.

[@stevechrisley8570]

Which seat did you repair the driver side or passenger side thank you

[@mattwood5493]

Steve Chrisley passengers side

[@sethlikesgreen]

I don't need a whole video, perhaps just a simple explanation in comments of how to remove bladder and reinstall would suffice. Thanks for your time

[@mattwood5493]

Super SE you have to take the upholstery somewhat apart.. you can loosen in the back of the seat as well as underneath. The bladder is sandwiched between the foam and the top layer of upholstery material

[@sethlikesgreen]

@@mattwood5493 Thank you for responding, I ended up buying an emulator for my 2009 Nissan Altima at airbag360, it was $80 but at least it is safe to drive now. The downside is that the light on the dash for the seat belt sign is on unless someone puts the seat belt on. I could probably disable the seat belt sensor but it doesn't make any noise so I'm fine.

[@AC-ns4tp]

I have a question so I have a 2007 nissan Altima and I have the airbag warning light on . it doesn't go away ..I took it to the dealer ship to get itcheck and they told me it was the passenger side airbag module thats bad. Do you know what I can do? Any advice

[@dannyry]

my 2009 altima has the same problem. they said it will be more than 3k to replace and fix, which is insane. they recalled newer models for the exact same reason.

[@Miss_AriStarry]

dannyry Danny I have a 2009 Altima with the same issue. Did you ever get it fix? I can't pass an inspection with the lights on and I need a cheap, safer option.

[@tonibell8193]

I have a 2017 Nissan Altima and my passenger light works like it should. My problem is the airbag warning light stays on in my speedometer. Can anyone inform me on this issue?? I’m calling Nissan today.

[@jakeflane2218]

Was there that part two to this video you mentioned?

[@mattwood5493]

There was but youtube took it down.. not sure why.. unfortunately I do not have it anymore

[@jakeflane2218]

[@starguard4122]

Mines will blink SIX times then stop, then ONE time then stops, then starts this cycle all over repeatedly. Does anyone know what this code (6,1) means

[@ELEVOPR]

So I had a bladder problem and didn't even know it 😳

[@starguard4122]

Did you have to remove the seat from the car?

[@mattwood5493]

No but it does make it easier
