Infiniti G37 - Remove Airbag Module WITHOUT Removing Center Console

Don't remove your entire center console to access your airbag module. There is an easier way and I will show you in this video.

[@Dustyv36]

Update! My car is a G37 sedan so the process removing the module was a lot more complicated but after removing and sending to the link you gave me I was able to get my airbag light light off!! Thank you so much man 🙏🏽

Nice work! Glad it helped!

Thank you so much for the video!!!

You are the GOAT!!

[@toddlefortsgarage]

Thanks Marcelo! Way easier right? No one wants to remove that center console. So much work. Glad this helped you.

[@LumeiryRodriguezGonzalez]

Question, did you unplug the battery before removing the "module"? I purchased the repair through SafetyRestore and am sending the module.

[@toddlefortsgarage]

Hey! I honestly don’t remember if I did or not if I didn’t say it on the video, but definitely couldn’t hurt. I probably didn’t because it was just the module and not the actual airbag. Glad this video helped!!

Hey Bro, is there any difference between years and SRS modules? I have a 2014 Q60 (same as G37 coupe). I bought the car with the light on SOLID took it to Nissan and the claim it’s the front crash sensor, driver side sensor and module…. I’m assuming I should start with the module first? Who reset your module?

[@toddlefortsgarage]

Hey Raul. I just don't know. I'm like you. Just a guy trying to fix his own car. A quick look on the Internet "looks" like the cars are relatively the same generation so the SRS module may also be the same. I put in a previous comment reply that I used Safety Restore. They are out of Westfield, MA. I found their airbag module reset service on eBay. Here is a link to their website - www.safetyrestore.com/7-airbag-module-reset-service. I’m not paid to endorse them. Their price was reasonable and service was very prompt. Hope this helps!

[@MarioHernandez-bn6pm]

There is a difference in the modules. You’ll have to look at the part number it has .. it probably is best to get the module reset if there was airbags deployed or if the module is faulty. Once the module is fixed then whatever codes are left are the remaining issues with the car

I got in a accident recently but no air bags went off but I already have my airbag light on that it has been in a previous accident but it turn on and cranked well and after this accident it doesn’t crank but turns on but I could hear a buzz and click when I try to crack with this possibiliy resolve it ?

[@toddlefortsgarage]

I wish I could tell you that it would but….i just don’t know. I’m not a mechanic. Just a DIY’er like yourself. I’m sorry I can’t be more help.

[@Dustyv36]

May I ask where you sent it out to get it reset? And is sending it out the only option?

[@toddlefortsgarage]

I used Safety Restore. They are out of Westfield, MA. I found their airbag module reset service on eBay. Here is a link to their website - www.safetyrestore.com/7-airbag-module-reset-service. I’m not paid to endorse them. Their price was reasonable and service was very prompt. Yes, there is a way to reset it without the service but you need the same software and module connectors that the company uses and the knowledge of how to do it. I don’t have any of that. For $40-$45, it’s worth it in my opinion.

[@getbakkvinny]

G37 makes it impossible to do this because of back air vents

[@AntoinetteTia]

My 09 g37 was in a accident my airbag did deploy but my airbag light did not come on. Should I still get my airbag module reset?

[@toddlefortsgarage]

Hi Antoinette. Hope you’re ok from the accident. Sorry to hear that. I’m no airbag expert. That’s really odd that the airbag light is not on. If it were me and the car was all repaired and the airbag light is not on, I would not personally make the expense or work to reset the module. Perhaps the repair shop took care of that for you when they did the repairs. You have to make the call that’s right for you though. That’s my opinion. Hope this helps a little.

[@AntoinetteTia]

@@toddlefortsgarage Thank you and thanks for your quick reply. I’ll be replacing the airbag myself this following week if the airbag light is still off I’ll probably take the initiative and not reset it. I started to get the center console out to take out the module and I’m having trouble getting it out. I started thinking if I do send the airbag module in what are they resetting if the light and code aren’t showing.

[@toddlefortsgarage]

Airbag modules store hard and soft codes when there is an accident. Even after small accidents, fault codes will be stored in the module which will turn on the airbag light. When you send in your airbag module, they reset and clear all of these crash codes inside the module in order to turn off the airbag light. But if your airbag light isn't on, maybe there are no fault codes stored on the airbag module.

Great video. I have a 2012 G37x Sedan sport my car was in a accident after the impact the airbag didn't deploy but the SRS airbag is flashing, it was diagnosed with (code: B1015 PRESENT FOR AIRBAG CONTROL UNIT) is this related? if it is, would the module be located on the center console as well?

[@toddlefortsgarage]

Hey Don. Sorry to hear about the accident. Hope you’re OK. I don’t know exactly. if you go to www.myairbags.com, they have a pretty basic airbag module location lookup. For a 2012 G37 it says that it’s “under center console on the floor”. Good chance it may be in the same place. Hope the video helps you fix yours. Good luck!

If yours is blinking than it's much easier to remove.. there's a few steps you have to repeat in a certain sequence and it should fix

[@Don-qz1cu]

@@brandolopezz4397 not sure if I can follow! what steps?

[@brandolopezz4397]

@@Don-qz1cu one of the steps is switching the key on and off like 3 times look it up on KZbin

[@gustavomorter5925]

Would these cause your car to not turn on or turn off by itself while driving ?

[@toddlefortsgarage]

No it wouldn’t. I didn’t have a problem with that while waiting for the module to be reset. And I haven’t had a problem with it since. Never have had a problem with this setup. Hope that helps.

[@annaknight5111]

HELP PLEASE My 2008 G35 has a continuous airbag light. Tried to reset it. Didnt work. Took it to the dealership. They say the passenger side airbag sensor needs replaced. $6-$8 grand! Im disabled dont have that kind of money. Did my research. My specific car is not in this recall 😠.. Live in an inspection state and cant pass inspection. Cant find a used seat ( might wind up with the same problem anyway ?) Thinking about seeing if someone can check the connection under the passenger seat ? Could it be this entire module?
