Who to fix Nissan B1049 error?

The B1049 Nissan code indicates a problem with the driver side airbag deployment circuit. This code is stored in the vehicle’s engine control module (ECM) when there is an issue with the airbag circuit that prevents the airbag from deploying properly in the event of a crash.

Possible causes of the B1049 code include:

– Faulty Driver Air Bag – highly unlikely airbags don’t fail

– Faulty Spiral Cable – most likely

– Driver Air Bag harness is open

– Driver Air Bag circuit poor electrical connection

What exactly is an SRS airbag module reset?

  • Faulty airbag sensor: The airbag sensor is responsible for detecting a crash and sending a signal to the ECM to deploy the airbag. If the sensor is malfunctioning, it may not send the proper signal, resulting in the B1049 code.
  • Wiring issues: The airbag circuit is connected to various wiring harnesses and connectors. If there is a problem with the wiring, such as a broken wire or a loose connection, the airbag may not deploy properly.
  • The driver’s airbag circuit is experiencing high resistance, which is most likely caused by a malfunctioning spiral cable. This cable serves as the connection between the airbag and the steering column and can become damaged over time. The spiral cable is also commonly referred to as a clock spring. A diagnostic machine can confirm this issue and the best solution would be to replace the spiral cable.

 

Solutions for the B1049 code include:

  • Replace the airbag sensor: If the sensor is found to be faulty, it will need to be replaced.
  • Check and repair the wiring: Any damaged or loose wiring should be repaired or replaced.

 

In order to diagnose the B1049 code, a professional diagnostic scan tool will be required to read the code and retrieve any additional trouble codes that may be stored in the ECM. Once the code has been diagnosed and the problem has been identified, the appropriate repair can be made to fix the issue.
