The deactivation of the airbag in the Nissan Qashqai, how does it happen?

Model: Nissan Qashqai J12 - Years 2021-2026
Part: Airbag

In the latest version of the Nissan Qashqai, the passenger airbag management system is very convenient, and to confirm this, here’s a video explaining why. While in many other cars the deactivation is done manually, mainly due to the presence of children and therefore child seats, through a button or selector, in this vehicle it is not necessary, as the seat has a sensor that reads the weight of the occupant. Below a certain threshold, the airbag is automatically deactivated by the control unit, and the corresponding warning light above the rearview mirror is activated.

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
