Does anyone know why the ABS and Airbag lights might be on? Also, when I hit the brakes, the brake light on comes on by the ABS light. Is this normal?

my brake light comes on sometime but all my lights are good. There is a way you can reset your airbag light unless your airbag sensor is bad. Look by driver side door panel there is little black switch press it like 5 times by slowly and putting ignition on only and then shut it off all the way and restart should go away. Hope it helps

My brake light comes on as soon as I touch the brakes. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the diode box in the trunk of the car, just haven't had time to deal with it. It doesn't seem to affect anything.

Thank you. I'll give it a try. Any idea why the ABS light would be on?

I'm not sure about the ABS and Airbag lights, but the Brake light being on every time you use the brakes is 99% caused by one (or more) 3rd brake light bulbs being blown. You must use Nissan bulbs, others won't work, because of the specific resistance in them.
