Hey Frontiersmen, last week I installed a CB radio, and had to remove the bezel from around the radio/A.C. controls. I had to disconnect the airbag on/off light and the passenger airbag key selector. After I reassembled everything, the red airbag icon flashes constantly. Does anyone know how to reset the light? It's a 2002 Frontier king-cab. I have tried disconnecting the battery and also the doorjamb switch thing. Didn't work.
Thanks, msubullyfan. I saw your reply the night I posted, but then was out of town for a couple days, so I didn't try the fix until today (thursday). It worked perfectly the first time. Now I don't have to pay the dealer to do it! Thanks again. That flashing red is more than annoying, it is stupifying!!

I had a new stereo installed at Circuit City and when they got done, the air bag light was flashing. They didn't know how to reset it so I drove around for a few days with the flashing light while they were researching a fix. I tried the above method and it worked!!!!!
It worked for me, too. First time. My only regret is that I tried the battery disconnect trick, (which did not work!!) and now I can't reset my clock; the buttons do not respond at all. My clock is now 3 hours and 19 minutes off. Someone said I have to replace (or have repaired) the radio. Maybe I'll just do the math, then disconnect the battery again for the precise number of hours and minutes to correct the time. Thanks for the post, satxvike.
I have posted on this subject before. I was unable to stop the ABS light from blinking. I tried again today ,and mine went into diagnostic mode. It would blink once then pause ,and then blink eight more times. This kept repeating. I shut it off for 5 mississippi's
,and it continued to blink the same code. After awhile it went back to steady blinking. Does anyone no what the code means.
^^ The ABS light has to do with the braking system. This thread is about the Airbag light. Are you sure you are in the correct thread .... you may want to search again.
You can add the 2007 Frontier to the list:
Same issue,
Same fix
First time, no worries!
