Ditto. The light is supposed to stay on, don't worry about it.

I'll make it five in a row. Yep, mine does that as well. 2004 Quest S.
 
Not sure why you don't think this is correct?

Trailer hitch / wiring by jailer
Mar 31, 2005 (12:05 pm)
I have a 2004 Nissan Quest S. It did not come with the towing package. I have found aftermarket hitches for the van but only can find a wire harness at the dealer and the dealer wants $300.00 just for parts. Has anyone had luck finding an aftermarket wire harness or had wiring installed by anyone but the dealer.
 
Thanks for your help.

Thanks everyone. I'm wrong on this, the dealer's right.
 
Here's a tougher one:
 
All sliding door recall and bulletin work was done. I picked the car up but neglected to check everything. Got home and found that the passenger side auto door would open correctly by using the outside door handle, would open with the inside button by the door, but would not open with the key fob, or with the overhead console button. Also, the door would not lock with the key fob.
 
The "on/off" button on the overhead console was "on", before you ask.
 
Brought it back to dealer and left it. Got a call it was fixed, pick it up.
 
Everything worked as it should and I was told there was a switch in the off position. But the mechanic and the service writer were both off and no one else could tell me what or where any such switch could be. The Service Manager had no idea whatever.
 
Any ideas?
 
Thanks

Here is a web page on the Nissan site that speaks directly to the issue of "Steering Pull Diagnosis and Repair." The item regarding alignment may also be of interest.

Look around this web site, there's quite a bit of info.
 
Good luck with the problem. For what its worth, our 2004 Quest does not have this problem.

i don't own a quest - but this behavior is not intuitively obvious.
 
it's not how my van operates (light on when a light individual like a child or a parcel is in the seat) and you would think something like this would be standard through the industry - like other notification mechanisms (high beam on, seat belt not buckled, gas near empty, oil pressure low, etc).
 
one would expect there to be ennunciation when the system detects a problem, not when everything is OK (like noone is in the seat).
 
i'm sorry - but that is backwards.
 
at night, is the light on?
 
a light is supposed to call your attention to the discrepant, alerting you to a potential problem to get your attention.

Actually it is intuitively obvious once you understand the Quest as well as most new vehicles have the second generation air bags whose deployment rely on the weight of the passenger. Also the consumer has been trained to believe these safety devices are always on. Meaning you and I have to do nothing. It makes perfect sense to have some type of indicator that shows this vital safety feature is not active. Similar to the ABS system. There is not light on when it is working properly. But bright ABS light will shine if something is wrong with the system. Also this is the case with most traction control systems. No light on when working properly. Shut off the traction control and it will tell.
 
Not sure why you don't understand this esp. when you mentioned that the seat belts work the same way. IF you have them buckled, you see nothing. If you don't have them buckled you see a bright light. Teh way Nissan has it set up seems perfectly logical to me. Let the driver know when the safety systems are off or inactive by shining a light.
 
Yes the light stays on at night but trust me with all the other lights on the Quest console, you barely notice that small light.

your explaination is consistent with my understanding, and what my vehicle does.
 
please if you re-read post 1128, I believe you will also conclude that the poster's car behavior does not support what you expect, and perhaps what your car does.
