am buying a donor 2000 g20 to take the motor out and installing it on my 2002 g20, the donor car has both airbags deployed and the engine doesn't turn over.
i know there has to be a way to get the engine started with the airbags deployed, i think it cuts the fuel supply off. can i send power to the fuel pump to get it started? does it do something to the positive battery cable. what gets effected when the air bags deploy? my 2002 is in tacked just has a spun bearing so i don't need airbags and modules so on on......

The airbags are not stopping that car from starting. There is no interaction between the SRS control unit and the ECM in that way.
Is it just a dead battery?
Figure out the starting problem.

actually they do. it cuts off fuel supply i think. on older cars it does not but 2000 and up does. nut i dont know if its all the models maybe the cheaper one does. different cars have different ways of shutting something off. some cars it blows the positive batt terminal in the battery, BMW has a fuseable link in the positive batt cable. but i dont know about infiniti. i have been told to unplug the srs module under the seat and use another ECU and it should start right up. but dont know if i should use my ECU.

Hmmm. Unplug the SRS control unit anyway.
Its going to need replacement if any of the modules have deployed.
