My mate has a series II R33 and the airbag light keeps on flashing, all connections were checked and everything is fine. is there anyway apart from taking it to nissan to reset this fault.

I did a search and found this but i'm not sure which is the driver door switch:

THIS IS HOW TO RESET THE AIRBAG COMPUTER

First you have to put the system into the diagnostic mode. Here's how to do this:

From User Mode To Diagnosis Mode:

Diagnosis Mode activates only when a malfunction is detected, by pressing the driver's door switch at least 5 times within 7 seconds after turning the ignition "ON". SRS will not enter Diagnosis Mode if no malfunction is detected.

From Diagnosis Mode to User Mode:

After a malfunction is repaired, switch the ignition "OFF" for at least 1 second , then back "ON". Diagnosis Mode returns to User Mode. If switching Diagnosis Mode to User Mode is required while malfunction is being detected, switch the ignition "OFF", then back "ON" and press the driver's door switch at least 5 times within 7 seconds.

After a malfunction is repaired, return to User Mode from Diagnosis Mode by switching the ignition "OFF" for at least 1 second, then back "ON". At that time, the problem code is cleared

The little switch in the door aperture for the interior light???

Dunno if they work, never tried them myself.

Was just a guess for the door switch, but seems to make sense....

that happened to me once when I had the boost gauge put in airbag light went flashing whenever ignition was turned on, it happens when the car senses a voltage leak or something or other...but they finally cleared it all up and I believe it was with the instructions you got(they told me they got it from the internet too)

anyway, i believe the switch is the little black rubber button thingy on the drivers side door near where the sticker for the tyre specs should be, i saw him pressing it a number of times along with some other stuff he did.
