2 vehicles · 1 makes · $300-$900 repair
Most Reported On
B1054 is an OBD-II diagnostic trouble code meaning “Manufacturer-Specific Body Code (Driver Airbag / SRS Circuit Open or Short).” B1054 is a manufacturer-specific body code related to the supplemental restraint (airbag) system. On Nissan/Infiniti and several other makes it generally indicates an open or shorted circuit in the driver airbag module (or a related pretensioner/squib circuit), meaning the system cannot confirm a proper connection to that deployment device. This is a safety-critical fault — the affected airbag or pretensioner may not deploy in a crash, so it should be diagnosed promptly. The exact circuit varies by maker and should be confirmed against service data. This code is most commonly reported on 2008-2013 Nissan Rogue, and 2023-2025 Nissan Sentra, with repair costs ranging from $300 to $900.
