DIY: [How-To:] Racing Seat airbag light fix

Anyone try the passenger airbag sensor in a fixed Bride seat? Wondering if the pad would fit fine under the cushions... Thanks in advance.

That's a good question. I wish there is an aftermarket connector that we can just plug and play. Coz those resistors might not last long. It would be nice to switch out the resistors easily.

Just find someone who's parting out a wrecked Z and buy the pigtails. Always a few up on Facebook or if you're not in FB, car-part.com has a hundred or so wrecked Z's from all over the country.

I just did the resistor add for the Recaro that I just installed. I had to cut the plug off my stock seat (but I didn't care). I did the airbag reset and it worked perfectly.

ISO: SEAT AIRBAG CONNECTORS


I spent the morning calling all the junkyards within a hour of my house and not a single 370Z at any of them. I checked ebay, Amazon, Google Marketplace all without success. I even tried finding the OEM Nismo Airbag Bypass product without success. I posted on Facebook marketplace a week ago without success as well. I have the resistors and weight sensor bypass, however these little yellow plugs are impossible to find. Does anybody know where I can find them or have some for sale? I will pay good money for them, I just need to find them.

The FSM will have the plug specs listed. There is a generic connector type given. You should be able to find a supplier online.

Default Just to be clear...?

There are two airbag lights...one located with the tach, and the other near the glove box for the passenger seat airbag.

To confirm, the airbag light located with the tach will turn off with the install of the two resistors and without installing the passenger weight sensor. Correct?

I have replaced my seats, and have the oem seatbelts connected. I have the resistor in place on both the drive and passenger airbag plug under the seat. I do not have the passenger weight sensor connected. I am getting a airbag code 15 (1 long, 5 short flashes on airbag light located with tach).

I just need to confirm that I do not have to have the passenger weight sensor installed in order to make the flashing airbag light go out that is located with the tach.

Will the 4.7ohm resistor work for any airbag in the car?

Where is this resistance value (4.7Ω) being referenced from?
