Having the usual airbag light issue and cannot now cancel it by the ignition key method, had a diagnostic on it and the code B1161 CRD RH open was in history. Chris Rogers is saying new seat belts at $600 + each is the solution can anybody offer an alternative solution.

I'm pretty sure I had that code when I removed standard seats as the new ones are Recaros so don't have the airbag plug etc underneath. Sounds like maybe the unit in the seat has crapped itself. Try putting in a new seat or unplugging the seat side of the harness and wiring a 2.2ohm resistor into the body side harness.

Scott those numbers came up when Matty scanned the car, he,s previously had issues with airbag lights on different brands which have been bad connections, an item in the steering wheel and various others all a lot cheaper than new seats/belts

If I recall, using a cable tie to tighten the two ends of the connector together fixed the warning light for some people in the past (never had it personally, so can't confirm).

Might be worth a try before anything else?

Standard factory cloth seats Phil and all the plugs look to be ok but thanks for the offer of the seats will keep it in mind, really pisses me off that Nissan can build such a good car then stuff things up like this silly bloody airbag issue.

Before touching ANY airbag circuitry, disconnect both positive & negative battery terminals & wait 5-10 minutes before disconnecting anything. Not doing so can cause issues. The majority of airbag components/systems MAXIMUM resistance is 4 Ohmns. Anything over this will result in a fault.

Its likely damage has occurred to the seat belt SRS ram (pyrotechnic device) when you changed your seats.

      R34 engine swap Rb25de neo to s1 Rb25det

      THERE IS NO IAT SENSOR ON ANY SINGLE TURBO RB. And the one on an RB26 is not for "engine control" - it's really too big and too slow and is only used for over-temp alarming (as far as I can tell). Anyway, you don't have one. You want/need one for the Link, then you need to buy one, find a spot for it, and wire it in. You do know that the stock boost solenoid is not capable of "control", right? It is merely on or off, for the low boost (5 psi) and high boost (7psi), which the ECU enforces mostly based on gear. The stock solenoid is not for PWM control and is not plumbed up in a way to provide it. If you want to control boost properly, then you need a proper MAC valve. And yes, you can wire either of them direct to the ECU. Well, I assume you can - I don't know what the boost solenoid pins on the plug and play Link are capable of. They really should be as capable as any normal Link - but seeing as it is plg and play, it might be limited to stock functionality. Read the doco.   You really do just want to plug stuff together without understanding how it works, right? I can't help you there. I don't know the plug types or pinning on half the stuff you're asking about. If I had to do it I would sit down with the wiring diagrams, the car/looms and a multimeter and work out what is what.

      Factory oil temp sensor in a RS4V without gauges?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Light should be a pressure switch, not a sensor.

      The pressure light likely has a different sender to a pressure gauge, its been too long for me to remember for sure. Just have a look for another sender down near the oil filter. If you are confident in your rewired pressure sender reading correctly, you can be pretty sure it is just the dash light's sender failing, it is a pretty common thing.

      S1 headlights?

      By Duncan · Posted

      That is a series 1 front end (grill, bumper, headlights). I'm not sure if you are trying to confirm if your whole car is series 1 or just the headlights, but the build date and vin# on the plaque in the engine bay would be the best reference for what it was when it left the factory (noting a lot may have changed over the years)
