I just bought a 1995 series 1 GTS25T and got a new steering rack put in as old one was leaking. Once it was in and everything hooked up my mechanic and i noticed that the airbag light was on and that the horn didnt work. He put the nissan computer on it to see if there was any reason for this but it didnt come up with anything. We checked the fuses under the dash as well as under the bonnet. HE also took the steering wheel off to see if it has a wire loose but still nothing. we are both very confused. Could anyone help.

Thank you

sounds light when you took off the steering wheel, you may have moved the clock spring out of allignment and have damaged the clock spring.

Here is a link which may help you but if it is the problem, then you need a new one as you have probably snapped the cable inside the unit.

Thank you for that. i will get my mechanic to look at it as i dont trust myself with airbag removal :down:

the only thing is that the light and horn stopped working BEFORE we took off the steering wheel. Could it still be the same thing?

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
