yasir bashir Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 hi i have a links G4 in my Nissan Skyline R34 GTR is it possible to clear dash fault codes by plugging into the G4 using the supplied software and cable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Williams Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Hi, There sure is. Plug in the cable, turn the key to the ON position and hit F3. The ECU will now connect to the laptop. Once connected, select ECU Controls > Clear ECU Fault Codes from the main menu at the top. Done. Turn the key off and disconnect the cable.

Scott Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Good afternoon, While connected to the ECU if you select View > Event log the window will display showing all current events including fault codes. Regards, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yasir bashir Posted April 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 I have had a go and can’t see any fault codes? I have tried clearing ECU fault codes also and had no luck? This is what I get when I click to view even logs. Where am I going wrong? http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/189/capturelink.png/'>Uploaded with http://imageshack.us'>ImageShack.us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Hi Yasir, Looking a the image you linked to above, you currently do not have any fault codes, that is why none appear in the list. When you cleared the fault codes you would have wiped any that were there. Regards, Scott. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yasir bashir Posted April 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 just to make it clear the airbag has been reconnected now just need to clear the light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Hi Yasir, The Link ECU does not control the airbags, this will have a separate ECU that needs to have its faults reset. Most vehicles need this done with a scan tool on the OBDII port. Possibly you could try disconnecting your battery for 20 minutes and see if this clears the airbag light. Regards, Scott.
