Read this before you ship. If your Infiniti seatbelt pretensioner fired, resetting the module alone will not unlock or repair the belt. The fired belt or pretensioner must be replaced or rebuilt. Our service clears the module’s crash record and pretensioner-fire record; the physical deployed component must still be repaired. Important Infiniti issue — Crash data, side impact faults, and sensor calibration after repair Infiniti vehicles share Nissan SRS architecture and commonly store crash/event data in the Air Bag Diagnosis Sensor Unit after a front, side, rear, curtain-airbag, or seatbelt pretensioner event. Customers may see SRS warning lights, crash zone sensor faults, side-impact sensor faults, curtain airbag circuit faults, occupant classification faults, or deployment-history related codes. Before replacing impact sensors, clocksprings, seat buckles, occupant sensors, or the entire SRS control module, confirm whether the original module contains stored crash/event data. If the module is locked from crash history, the correct repair is a bench reset of the original module plus replacement of any physically deployed airbags or pretensioners. Why Karmanauto — Verifiable Expertise You Can Check Before You Ship Your Module Karmanauto has been in business since 1999 and online since 2006. We are not an anonymous drop-box service. Our process is documented publicly through the Vehix411 YouTube channel and our Airbag Module Repair & Reset School, where we have trained shops and technicians since 2010. When You Need an Infiniti SRS Airbag Module Reset Infiniti SRS light stays on after an accident If the SRS warning light came on after a collision, fender bender, curb strike, seatbelt pretensioner event, or airbag deployment, the airbag diagnosis sensor unit may contain stored crash data that will not clear with normal scan-tool commands. Infiniti seatbelt is locked after impact A locked Infiniti seatbelt after an impact usually means the pretensioner fired. The module records that event, and the belt assembly itself must be replaced or rebuilt. Infiniti SRS light on after airbag replacement Replacing airbags or seatbelts does not automatically clear the module’s internal crash history. The original module still needs to be reset. VDC, steering angle, or ABS lights after collision repair If the SRS light is repaired but the VDC, slip, ABS, or steering angle light remains on, that is usually a vehicle calibration issue, not failed crash reset. Infiniti models may require steering angle sensor calibration, yaw-rate calibration, ABS/VDC relearn, or occupant classification zero-point reset after body, suspension, steering, or seat work. Dealer quoted a new airbag control module Dealer replacement can be expensive and may require configuration. In many cases, resetting the original module is faster and more cost-effective. Infiniti airbag part-number coverage: Common Infiniti airbag diagnosis sensor unit / airbag control module families include 98820-XXXXX and older 28556-XXXXX. Some related impact and side sensor parts use other prefixes such as 98830. If you are unsure, send a clear photo of the module label before shipping.

Infiniti Airbag Reset — Quick Answers Can an Infiniti airbag module be reset after a crash? Yes, when the original module is readable and not physically damaged. Do I need dealer programming? Most original-module resets are plug-and-play because your original configuration is retained. Will this unlock my seatbelt? No. A fired pretensioner must be replaced or rebuilt. Will this fix steering angle, VDC, or slip light codes? No. Those are vehicle calibration or ABS/VDC issues and must be handled on the car after the SRS module is installed. What if my part number starts with 98820? That is a common Infiniti center airbag control module family we service. Frequently Asked Questions Can an Infiniti airbag module be reset after a crash? Yes. Stored crash data can usually be cleared from the original Infiniti module if it is readable and not physically damaged. Can a scan tool clear Infiniti crash data? A scan tool can clear normal active faults, but crash/event records stored internally often require bench reset. Is Infiniti the same as Nissan for airbag reset? Infiniti shares Nissan SRS architecture and many module families, but the page, model coverage, luxury-platform options, VDC integration, and calibration notes are Infiniti-specific. What if my Infiniti has no codes but the SRS light is on? That can happen after impact or module lockout. The module should be checked before replacing random sensors. What if my Infiniti has VDC, slip, ABS, or steering angle lights after repair? That is usually not an airbag module crash-data problem. Steering angle, yaw-rate, VDC, ABS, or occupant classification calibration may be required on the vehicle after collision repair or alignment. Do you fix bad wiring or sensors? No. We reset the module. Physical vehicle faults and calibrations must be repaired separately. What should I ship? Ship only the airbag control module / Air Bag Diagnosis Sensor Unit. Do not ship airbags, seatbelts, or pyrotechnic parts.
