Nissan Repair: help me, nissan maxima, haynes manual


Question
my 95 nissan maxima has the airbag light on and wont go out and the engine light has 4 codes 01 01, 04 07,10 05, and 03 04 can this just be a big electrical problem because all codes are circuit fault

Answer
Jocelyn,

It sounds like the computer since you have so many codes at once.  I would disconnect the battery first and wait five minutes and then reconnect and start the car and see if this clears the codes.  If not get a Haynes Manual and look up each code and go from there (one at a time).  The airbag is a seperate thing and when the light is on that means the computer has cought a problem with the system.  After ten years you need to have the system looked at.  The dealer or a speciality shop will have a scanner for an airbag system since there is a liability in dealing with them.
