Passenger Airbag Sensor not turning OFF
I have a 20 month old baby that rides with me sometimes. I've had issues with the passanger airbag sensor not turning off when I use the carseat. My wife has the opposite problem when she sits on the passenger side. The airbag sensor turns off. Sometimes its hit and miss. Have you had this problem?

Hey Sergio, that seems like a big issue. I wouldn't drive with ANY airbag issues. After all it's a life and death situation. I was able to find a TSB (it's not for 370Z but for other 07-09 vehicles including the 350Z)
Take a look: http://www.the370z.com/images/370zforums/NTB08-095c.pdf Basically they are saying if your sensor is okay, no further action necessary. But if it's faulty, they'll replace the passenger seat cushion or sensor . Also, to answer your question, NO I do not have this problem. Hope this helps. |
I will retract my comment from the above post mine being " fine". My airbags are always on! I never get the yellowish "Airbags off" sign. When I start my car it does flash the sign but once the car is on - airbag is on. :(. It doesn't bother me since I'll never put a baby in my car but for those of you that do, I'd get it checked. They will simple replace the sensor under the seat. It's an easy fix.

could be the same issue that some of the G37 have had there is a TSB for them. PM me and I can give you some details. Cannot post the link here as it to another form and AK will delete it as that is against form rules.

After reading the owner's manual, I found out that my airbag sensors are just fine! I got a little confused with the warning signs but it's all sorted out now.

I have a 2010 and the airbag light comes on saying the airbag is off when my girlfriend is in the passenger seat sometimes. Think I should probably take the car in to get looked at.

passenger airbag light
I have a 40th anniversary model and the passenger airbag light may come on to tell me the airbag is off and noone is in the seat. I had a case of water on the passenger seat and it again came on showing me that airbag was off. Will be telling this info to dealer tomorrow as I go to get oil change. First oil change since receiving car. Going to get synthetic as "road and Track" didn't really state that the ester oil was worth getting. They called the ester oil, "special sauce". Has anyone else had this problem with their z?

Whenever I have stuff sitting on the seat or even with my gf sitting (~103-110 lbs), the light is always on. Every once in awhile it turns off, but it depends on the location of the items or how she sits.

Just another bad location for the weight sensor. |

Same issue here. When my gf sits in the passenger seat, the light is sometimes on and sometimes not.

When my wife sits in the passenger seat, the "Airbag Off" light is NEVER on...jk. Actually, I've never noticed one way or the other, which probably means the light is off.
