Here's WHY your Nissan won't even jumpstart with jumper cables. & how to fix it.
For a guy who owns a 2005 nissan altima with all the same problems you mentioned as well as the hood prop being broken, this gave me some laughs. Thanks for the video.
Welcome James. That's pretty funny.
Hood clip is an easy fix.. I fixed my daughters for less than 1$.. drill a small hold thru the remainder of the base clip and interlink 2 washers with a zip tie.. just place the end of the prop rod into one of the zip tie circles and it holds fine. Hers has been like this for years.. 😊 I hate the cooling systems on these cars!! Grrr.
Couldnt agree more. I would never buy another nissan again. I've had so many so many problems and wayyyy to much money later.
I have about 7 grand into my 06 altima 2.5s special edition. Ive rebuilt and rewired everything. But i love her and cant let her go! 208,000 miles and runs great!
@@fredsmith1672 what have you rebuilt to make it work at 200,000 miles mines have 180,000 but I’m not really a car person
I had more problems with their new car sales people than I've had with the SUV.
Rare honesty in a RUclips video about cars.
agreed.
You are absolutely right about that.
Thanks Brian. My 2015 Nissan Altima had the very problem you demonstrated on this video. My mechanic told me to take it back to the auction where I bought it. I took it to the dealer and they told me that it will take a minimum of 6 hours to diagnose the problem. They will have to take out the dashboard. It’s going to cost me a couple of thousands to diagnose and fix. I didn’t have that so I took it back home. I watched your video and the problem was solved in less than 30 minutes. Thank you so very much.
Well done!
You probably won’t see this but yesterday my moms Nissan Pathfinder 2008 did this. Went into the store, 10 minutes later, came out and boom it was dead. Found this video today and she was able to drive it home. Gonna replace that part asap. Thank you so much
7 years later and I gotta say thank you for this video. Your contribution is greatly appreciated
My dad has a frontier (in the bow hunting video) and so does my brother-in-law. They have both had this same component fail. My cousin's Armada- same thing. ALL of them still LOVE their Nissans and would buy them again in a heart beat. NONE of them work on them at all. I'm happy for you about the Xterra. I'm glad you like it!
man you are the truth you wouldn't believe how many dealerships I have took my Maxima 2 and specialist unreal but thanks again you are the truth
Worst mistake I've ever made was buying a nissan. Thank god for videos like this because you will definitely need them
Aside from the corroded battery connector I haven't had any significant issues with my 2014 Xterra. I did break the fusible link assembly when trying to get the nut off so that I could replace the battery clamp - I did get the nut loose though. I replaced that clamp with a marine battery clamp but I had to slightly enlarge the mounting hole on the fusible link. Anyway, I did run into another issue when I went to replace the storage basket on the roof and found that the bolts were over tightened to where I broke some brass looking part, that the bolt screws in to, when trying to remove the bolt and that required that I drill out the bolts - not happy about that. Needless to say, I did not re-install the basket. I do have one of those "smart keys" that will open the car door but won't start the SUV (key goes into ignition but won't turn) - good think I have more than one key (and, by the way, another car to drive if this one fails).
My fiancee bought a Nissan without talking to me and I've been fixing it every freaking month. I swear to God I want to rip my hair out over this car constantly..
Me too a frigging nightmare, 08 frontier le bad radiator leaked to tyranny fried tcm and ecu 6800 dollars, crankshaft sensor then all sensors, now another electrical problem plus new driveshaft, new axles, tie rods on and on it goes in only 2 years
facts.
Nissan = 🗑 🚮
Me too, I hate mine won’t start tonight , it’s sitting in a parking lot
Brother
You are a blessing! Thank you! This worked! I did a voltage test and was getting nothing. The screw and wire were oxidized. I followed your steps and I get 14.4 volts with the car running using that as the ground
Omg!! Thank you for making this video!! This is how we got my son’s Nissan Titan started!! I can’t thank you enough!!!
What was the problem or symptoms with the titan my won’t start
@@sergiochilel6164 the fuse on the battery was fried from being jumpstarted jncorrectly by my father in law. I was able to start my sons truck by following this video!
in the video did you jump over the fuseable link. bypassing it
Awesome, you are the first young (I am retired) person that I have heard use the "Planned Obsolescence" term. I can remember father using that term when I was growing up, so I used it with my children and grand children and tell them what it means.
I always respect your honesty! Went from GM to Nissan but proly should of just bought a Toyota.
This ain't the kind of stuff they teach you in school thank you very much it fixed my car!! 🤩
I have a 2014 Xterra and had to replace my fusible link. You have convinced me to keep a spare fusible link assembly in the car along with the tools to replace it.
Hey man ur video saved me this weekend. Everywhere i read said its the brake pedal sensor. I had no money for that part and no where near a parts store. The car was doing nothing, no lights, no power locks, no sound, completely dead. Thanks for the video.
Update: i have a 2015 nissan altima and i took the poaitvie battery terminal off and cleaned those connections as well.
What is the part called? The same thing just happened to me on my Nissan Quest it won't start the horn won't blow the lights won't go on nothing
"That's horseshit is what it is, they suck!"
Ahhhh how refreshing ... non filtered honest criticism!!!
Omg omg thanks sooooo much for this amazing video. I had the same issue today and I was able to fix my car just by doing this. You saved me $$$. God blesses you.
This video absolutely helped me , my Nissan Altima won't start but once I put a little pocket knife in that spot it cracks right up ! It's a bummer since I just got it . . .
I added Electrical conducting grease to the relay/fuse connections and sandpaper the flat surfaces over the Battery posts. Now works.
Thanks for the great video! My daughter's Nissan Xterra wouldn't start. I'm not a car guy, so I had no idea why. Your video gave me a place to start. We changed the connections, cleaned everything and it started right up!
Greg Funk YES!!! Way to go! You found the answer and you made it happen!
Thanks! The guys at the auto store said I needed a new starter. I returned the $200 starter and went to the dealership paid $28 for the fusible link and it fired right up!
It’s August 13, 2021 and this video just helped me a lot I was about to junk my car until I seen this video so think so much
Wow! My GF has this car and i was fixing it, and you literally mentioned everything i also hate about the car! So many stupid things they did, I'm glad im not alone i feel better. The whole battery terminal monstrosity is the worst i've seen!
Thank you for this. I actually looked this up just to start my Mom’s Ford Focus and wanted to be sure I connected the jump cables correctly. Never did I imagine such an informative video and a guy that breaks it down in a way I understand too! Since choosing my 2012 Nissan Altima 2.5 or whatever, I’ve replaced 4-5 batteries due to corrosion, I’ve also had to by the “brain” of the car once because the battery corroded to the point it contacted connections to the brain and killed my car 🤦🏻♀️ that was expensive! Sorry ik very little in mechanic terminology however ik what sucks and replacing batteries about every two years sometimes more it seems flat out ridiculous, it’s costly, and can affect more than just the battery. Nissan should be forced to pay for every battery, car brain and service charge we owners acquire due to their bad planning. I do love my Nissan minus all the headaches but I’ll never buy one again! That and because it’s a foreign vehicle insurance is outrageous supposedly due to part costs
)
I had the same problem with my 2006 Altima. Took seeing this video to figure it out. Thank you.
THANK YOU! Thank you! Thank you! You saved me a wrecker bill (at least).
Ordering the spare fuse box, and a new cable to replace the corroded one. I thought I was somehow being negligent in taking care of my car because there was always a ton of corrosion building up on the battery, , but now I know it's just a design flaw, and it's going to do this again. At least I know where to start. I hope I can get the grease at my local parts place or WalMart?
Thanks again!
So good to see your comment! The mechanics that’d fix and replace my Nissan 2012 batteries and the brain once would ridicule me for not maintaining the battery... I was but it doesn’t seem to prevent the massive corroding of my 5-6 batteries plus one time it was so bad it literally affected the brain of the car that Nissan so conveniently put next to the battery 🤦🏻♀️ I hate Nissan! I love my car except all the bs expenses and time and effort put in just to use it
Both of my Nissan Altimas have the corrosion on battery terminals too. I've always wondered why even though I clean and maintain every few months.
Vaseline works great for anti corrosion on battery terminals
GREAT QUESTION! My main concern is that the fuses are so close to the positive terminal. While this looks good on paper, it lends them to be VERY vulnerable to battery acid and subsequent corrosion. Mechanics and tow truck drivers see "no starts" very regularly from the positive side terminal tripling in size and turning blue, green, or white due to sulfuric acid. Fortunately you can cut off the end and replace it easy enough. However a configuration like this is harder to come by at a C-store.
Holy shit you have no idea u may have just saved me thank u!
Woow you just saved me bro. This was just my exact problem..06 Nissan Altima
Been trying to get ours jumped even bought a battery box. Was stranded for a day til we tried this then it was able to read the battery voltage an start 'er right up! Thanks a bunch 💌
YOU WIN!!! CONGRATULATIONS on finding the answer and getting your Nissan started! You're welcome Donali!
This helped me so much was stuck here for 1 hour trying to figure this out.THANKS
Thanks Brian another great tip if your ever working on Nissans. And don't feel bad for complaining about it. Little problems like that one that leave you on the side of the road suck for anyone. And I agree Its just stupid for the company not to fix them.
So I love that you are shiting on Nissan right now I don't hate them but I'm not a fan.That's probably why there selling them so cheap right now. So my neighbor just bought a new Nissan Altima and tried to compare it to my Subaru Legacy I was trying to be polite but I just but out laughing cause I know there's no real comparison except there both Japanese cars LOL
+jeremy jones actually the nissan has lots of French in it. and french cars dont have a strong reliabilty record
I always hated working on Nissans, they rust like crazy in Canada and funny thing is I just bought one but it was a really good price and needed a car before the winter so I got it. Just never buy a Nissan Versa I really hate those, but I guess its different for people who drive one and people who have to fix them.
Katicus lol same here. My 98 ford f150 finally bit the dust and I got a good deal on a 2001 nissan frontier 3.3 liter crew cab that has issues. I too was in desperate need for another vehicle, but this nissan has its share of issues too. $2500 is what I paid for the nissan.
Don't buy a versa because YOU hate them lol
if it blocks power, why then starting at the 3:30 mark did you load the connectors with it, which could prevent the connectors from making solid contact with each other? i'm not trying to nitpick, just trying to understand. thanks for your patience.
Thanks Man. Excellent, to the point video. This just happened to Mom's Murano (rolling POS) so I appreciate you solving this puzzle and sharing. Saved me a day and a half of trying everything else and a pocket full of money. I'm subscribing. ~Keep on Keepin' on. ~S
We have Nissans at school. I’d add to your list their belt tensioner. Both the v6 and 4cyl. They always get rounded over and are fun to replace
I just had an 03 altima in my shop for 2 full weeks.By far the most annoying vehicle i have ever put my hands on. And to think i nearly bought an altima. great videos BTW thanks for taking the time to record and share your knowledge.
I am unable to remove the 12mm nut connected from the fusible link to the positive battery connector, even with applying PB blaster and the use of a breaker bar. Can I cut further down and use a coupler and extend a new battery wire with a battery lug?
Thank you very much for this Video.I was able to fix my wifes Nissan I changed the exact same part and it works like a champ now 👍👍👍💯
I just needed my Altima to start after battery replacement to trade it in!! I never post anything on RUclips but Your VIDEO WORKED for my '02 Altima SE!!!! Thank You Soooo Much your video saved me $$$ I was thinking alternator until I found your VID now I can trade it Thanks Again
Trade it in for a toyota/Lexus. Renault =Nissan =junk
2013 Altima. I have frequent build up corrosion on B+ on battery. Cleaned the terminal again last week wondering why it happens. Spotted your video, nice work. Your explanation of a a "lazy" design and bad hygiene made sense. Going to get a spare battery fuse block and reclean and protect the terminal better. Only reservation is that it's not a $200 part now.
2nd time I'm fixing this for 2012 nissan murano.. Thanks for the video.
my 2007 nissan murano just started doing this a month ago and its getting aggravating. gonna look into this fix tomorrow
A fuse must be installed as close to the power source as possible. If it were moved away from the source and there was a short between the fuse and the battery, there would be no safety feature to prevent a fire or battery explosion. A little maintenance goes a long way. Engine bay cleaning and battery terminal protection grease would prevent this. I am on my sixth Altima, all over 200,000 miles and never had this issue.
This happen to my 2005 nissan maxima and my right passenger window was half way down stuck for a day until i found out what it was with this video thanks 🙏🏼 .
I have 05 max also same issue great car overall with little annoying issues but reliable!!
Copper has to be 100% clean for soldering to take place. Cleaning stranded copper is difficult to do. Flux core solder alone is not enough especially on stranded wire. Rosin flux added to the wire would have made the solder flow better in the copper strands. The extra flux lifts the impurities (oxidation, oil, dirt) off the strands. Flux also act as a wetting agent, reducing the surface tension of the liquid solder allowing the solder to flow (penetrate). All the impurities are suspended in the flux. After the joint cools, clean the flux residue with alcohol, flux can be corrosive if not removed. (I didn't read all the 318 comments to see if someone suggested this, delete or edit if redundant.)
Dipping the stranded wire in alcohol or spraying a shot of carb cleaner is not enough to clean the inside strands.
You are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT about these cars, bro! I HATE mine.... or soon to be not mine.
Brian, Thank You for the video, but please give the name of the part you're replacing. I can't go to the dealer and say "That thingy that the man replaced from his Nissan car from the vide on his RUclips"
Yes whats the part nsme
i love my 03 nissan murano lmao...got it for 300$ cause the previous owner got tired of throwing money at it and tried but couldnt change his alternator....alternator and 2 lower balljoints now i got a really nice certified winter beater...one trouble free winter so far but now that i seen this in my feed im changing those before the snow falls
Thank you for sharing this information!!! I have a 2006 Altima and it acts as if it will start but then nothing happens just like in the video. The 1st sign that there was a problem was when I locked my doors at the gas station then upon leaving I unlocked it through driver window and the alarm went off. Started car went home. Turn car off and proceed to get out so I lock my doors. The alarm goes off again. Had to start my car and put it in drive. Lol. Not sure if that turned the alarm off but it worked. The next day my car wouldn't start.
Rhonda Sidibe you gotta reset the alarm I had the same problem
This saved me alot of time. New part on the way. Thank you for uploading!!!
I just replaced my fusible link and clamp but I'm going to order an extra fusible link to keep in the car. There's nothing worse than being 500+ miles from home with a car that won't start and/or can't get the part locally.
I have used Vaseline Petroleum Jelly (cheap in supermarket) for 50+ years on electrical connections. Also on boat electrics. Magic, NO corrosion problems. Johnny NZ
Thanks for the video, clear & concise! 👍
So I have a no start no crank issue on an 01 Nissan Xterra 3.3L. I have power to dash and all relays. I am thinking it could be something to do with anti-theft relay..can't figure out which one that is. Wiring diagram colors are off.
Definitely gotta give you credit on this one! 109 degrees outside and the '07 Sentra just said 'F' troop! Luckily, 777Towing got to me within 20 minutes so didn't have to suffer long. Broke out the umbrella and commenced tah sweating! The tow driver was baffled as to the possible cause; chiming, no dash lights, hazards work but no audible relay action (clicking). Get home and I actually look at this part (the fusible link) because it's right at the positive terminal as you mention, but it's so damn deceiving...I see four links that you can glance at and they are fine. What you don't see, and here's where the hat gets tipped off to ya, is the "other" hidden fusible link (ignition no doubt) that's under a nice plastic cover. Remove the positive cable, flip the assembly upside down and whoops there it is...Absolutely incredible. Found the 'missing link' thanks to you!
Most auto supply stores sell felt washer sets that help prevent or minimize battery sweat.
where they actually make contact it scrapes through it and conducts fine. Anywhere else that isn't actively contributing to the connection is insulated. This prevents the sacrificial anode effect. GREAT GREAT QUESTION!
Battery Terminal Fuse block. I've only ever found them in the Nissan dealership parts dept.
Haha, it's refreshing to hear you talk like this. I really enjoyed it :)
Dude honestly I NEVER Coment on these things but really dude your the man ty I've been broke down for over a week I have a Nissan Sentra 2013 same problem 800$ later and this video was the only thing that worked ty not sure if was asked already but if u can give me a name of that part ...ty yuor a life saver
Trade that Renault in for a toyota/lexus. Those things r nothing but trouble.
or an Acura..not too hard to fix those either
Hey, I love my Nissan! My Xterra has been, by far, the most reliable vehicle I have owned. It takes all of the abuse I serve it and never misses a beat. I can't say the same for my Chevy that I have owned a month and has already broken down twice. Four years with my Xterra and it has never left me stranded once. One month with the Chevy and it's quit on me twice. By the way, my 2001 Xterra does not have that type of fuse set up, somebody at Nissan must have got stupid in more recent years.
For some reason I found this one very entertaining, thank you.
Inherent in the question is the gap between the young engineers who design these cars and those who fix them. I always felt that engineers need to work from the ground up, rubbing shoulders with those who make and fix their vehicles. Any mechanic would roll his eyes at the thought of a fuse box so close to corroding battery cables....
i guess Im randomly asking but does anyone know a method to get back into an Instagram account??
I somehow forgot the password. I would love any tips you can offer me!
@Forest Braylen Instablaster :)
@Erik Alfonso Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and Im trying it out atm.
I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Erik Alfonso It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account !
@Forest Braylen No problem :D
Man, I wish I had my 95 Nissan mini truck back. I had it for 5 years and had zero problems with it.
My wife has a 2006 altima.....I don't like it...but she loves it....I drive a 1968 Plymouth Belvedere.....like a Roadrunner ....225 slant six....3 in the tree clutch....and I love it....it was my Father's he bought it new in 68....for...get this....2500.00....and it still has the same clutch....gotta luv those cars....I do!
Thanks for the heads up, sounds like a helpful spare part to get ahead of time!
Great video. I'm cranky, too.
My 2011 Altima SL (4 cylinder) was having some problems, and it was clear that the battery had a poor connection to the car. The battery is full of corrosion, thanks to an absolutely stupid design by Nissan. I loosened the positive battery terminal nut, and the car-side terminal connector came apart in my hand.
Sure, that connector is an $8 part...BUT...if the thing is so damn corroded that it may as well have been welded on, what's the freaking point? So I was off this morning (New Year's eve morning) to the stealership to but both the fusible connector and the positive connector piece. Here's the kicker - as I was waiting for them to bring my part, a service rep was telling somebody in the waiting room what was wrong with their Nissan. Guess what? "The positive terminal is so corroded that we'll need to replace the entire thing." I would have laughed if I weren't so pissed...them, too. Total for the parts plus tax? $40.
Of course, I couldn't get the fusible link bolt off, either. PB Blasted it for 12+ hours or so and nothing. We ended up having to drill it out. Finally everything is back together and working fine.
Great video and great advice - lots of dielectric grease and carry a spare in the car.
Same thing is going on with my 2006 nissan maxima. The 120 amp fuse on the positive battery terminal has blown a handful of times now. I've replaced the alternator, pigtail, battery, battery clamp/connector. Finally now figuring out that there must be a short somewhere or something since the fuse blew twice in one day. However that's the least of my problems as the car started overheating. Oh and the engine was of course rebuilt 3 years ago when the plastic guide for the timing chain broke and inevitably the chain broke. And to make matters worse, every mechanic I've spoken to has given me a different opinion about what's wrong. But I'm STILL not ready to throw in the towel!

PART IS CALLED A NISSAN "HOLDER-FUSIBLE LINK" My 2003 Murano has a Nissan Part #24380-79912 -you can Google that part number to see how it's referenced on Nissan Parts sites for your own Vehicle Model/Year
being a tech myself and owning an 01 maxima i have very little good to say about the car either, but the battery issue is easily remedied by cleaning it and sealing it. my biggest problem is with the immobilizer problems they have, if only my problems were so small as the corrosion on a terminal. needless to say we are all guilty of not doing the preventative care we are supposed to. tons of stuff i should have done or should do i have neglected. but they usually do not leave me stuck. the ECM with the immobilizer crap is ridiculous. especially when you consider what they want to charge for the parts.
you really helped me out in getting to know my new altima. The hood prop broke on mine, too. The fuse issue gave me a heads-up. i'll be buying one. I love the car but issues like this are a pain.
Get a toyota/Lexus. You'll thank me later.
Wow!!!! This was very helpful. I've been having problems with Nissan Sentra doesn't want to start looked like electric problem they said it was battery but lights going on and off, so yeah left stranded many times, just getting sick and tired of it all. Now I see this and explained a lot of the issues. Wow!!! I'll give it a shot. Thank you so much. 😊
Welcome! Nice to hear from you. Thanks for the thumbs up!
The manufacture should have the car designed engineers remove parts that often need replacement themselves so they know the pain we all suffered out here. Talking about design... I love how Subaru now placed the oil filter right on top of the engine :).
At the start when you got the car to start with the knife this is the moment i am referring to/ When the car was started, and was just ticking over you could hear the revs, increasing and decreasing, was that the mass flow intake malfunction? Or what would cause a car when in idle to change engine like that up and down up and down?
It was the car trying to find idle because power to the engine computer was interrupted and idle re-learn needs to be performed. A tedious procedure if you do not have a scan tool.
I think you just saved us. we were stuck on the road. Tha k you!!
I have the same problem. You might just save my life when i try this on
Lots of people get dielectric and electrical grease mixed up. Di is an insulator, grease is to promote conduction.
Great commentary. Thanks!
it's crazy how I came across this video..my 2010 Nissan sentra would never start in the cold..so long story short I drained the battery replaced it then I guess I blew the fuse.. the way that thing is made is completely beyond me.. it's no point in why this car have to be so difficult to maintain. but I will be trying this nail clipper trick!
THANKS!!! It worked. I was @ my wits End Then put a finger nail clipper on both bolts by the fuse and it Started!! And now keeps starting w/o the tool touching..
Hi could this cause the abs light to come on as it came on just before I turned the engine off to restart but it nothing was happening it would not turn over no power at all to anything lights horns etc the previous owner had make like a make shift connection going from one bolt to the other which looked burnt out so I just joined the 2 connections with a fuse for now to see if it worked which it did the car turns over and starts but the abs light is still on would this solve the problem if when I change the whole fuse part
planned obsolence..$$$%%...like why does ford have two voltage regulators ...and both have to work
Yup, yup, and yup. You have my sympathy! Got a dead one of these. Fuel, spark, air - just no run. Exhaust full of fuel now! Fun. Thanks man. Good vid.
"Its horse shit" lmao
1lovecan2 my fave part lol
i have a 2012 altima that the fusible link terminal corrosion welded itself to the positive terminal nut. what an adventure that was to replace. i had to use PB blaster and an impact gun to break it loose
We've been having electrical problems for years and have had to have that fusible link block/holder replaced FIVE times. I just realized that it was put back together wrong (both cables were put on one post instead of separate posts). I've got to believe that that's the issue
2000 nissan xterra 410,000km
2005 nissan sentra 327,000km
2002 nissan frontier 289,000km
1990 nissan pathfinder 508,000km
1994 nissan hardbody 4x4 314,00km
I have a big family and these are the cars we rely heavily upon our day to day lives none of them have given us any problems we do regular maintenance ourselves like oil air filter spark plugs and havent had any problems bottom line is that nissan makes good vehicles
MrSenaid2010 try to buy a newer model nissan and u will know
MrSenaid2010 good to know. Just bought a Pathfinder.

Mrsenaid2010.
Newer Nissan's are Renault influenced and are nowhere near as reliable as the pre-Renault ones. Nissan's r now JUNK!!!!!
Nothings more reliable than a honda
Thank you so much for this. I love my '02 Altima, but what a pain in the a$$. So many small fixes and now I'm having the issue that you talk about in this video. Guess I'm gonna make a trip to the dealership for the part tomorrow.
the trouble with my 02 altima brought me here
You are the best! Your parents did a great job!
Thanks for sharing the truth from a mechanics point of view.
Perfect video Brian, learned a lot. Thanks for that... I might be able to help someone on the road who has this issue.
Could you add a link to that part you installed? I'm currently working on my husband's 2008 Titan and I KNOW this is the issue. Thanks for your great content and personality; you make learning and being cranky fun ;)
This reminds me of when I had a 1979 chevette when I was 19 in 1980 . I bought it new and I learned one thing fast always carry a clutch cable and a pair of vise grips . On all of them that are 5 speed it breaks near the clutch pedal . It was under warranty and drove it there shifting with no clutch . The guy come out and said we replaced the cable and he knew my dad as he was a master mechanic so the guy gave me a cable and said you will need it . I keep bringing them back and swapped them.
Truthfully I was probably too critical due to my mood etc. but hopefully this will help a few Nissan owners as these are pretty common problems.
Hey Brian! My 2006 nissan maxima had this exact same fuse blow 5 times in 3 years. It was annoying the first 3 times but last week, it blew TWICE IN ONE DAY! Now I know there must be a short or something, right? Even if this IS a common problem with nissans, I imagine that blowing the same fuse twice in one day has got to be due to a larger issue. It's got a rebuilt engine (timing chain broke 3 years ago), new alternator, pigtail, new battery, new battery clamps/connectors (due to the same corrosion that everyone else talks about). Lots of new things. Oh and the alternator had to be replaced twice in two years. It's GOT to be a short, right? Or do you have any other leads? Thanks sooo much!
Japanese really got to love it . Their getting us back for the big one. Thanks man .
Actually it's French quality in a Japanese brand. Renault-Nissan junk.
Dduuuuudddeee!!! Thank you!!! I was having the shittiest day with this same issue on my 05 nissan Armada and was watching this video all pissed off, but when you pointed to it and was like, "this is, that's horseshit it what it is." Dude the way you said that and the way i can relate made me lose my shit laughing!!! LMAO!?! I needed that man! 🤣🤣🤣
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻thanks bro for the video, I was about to call towing company just for this crap
If you did a video, I think you have huge following and would help out a lot of people and you know how to explain exactly what it is all about.
MOST of them won't dis configure unless you remove just the positive and touch it to ground or remove both and touch them together. The best thing to do is just remove the negative cable only, or remove the battery completely and isolate the positive for a minute or so. By the way- that's not a "noob" question. Some cars are really fussy about being configured and require a certain procedure to configure- make sure to get that info before servicing a battery etc. These are rare.
Actually it's not laziness - it's called bean counters. They'll drive everything down to a price and they KNOW you're gonna be replacing things more often. And it's gotten ever worse since Renault bough Nissan.
I currently have a 00 Nissan maxima. I found this video looking for the issue...and I have the same one as this video. I don't have to use a metal piece to get it running again. I can just shake it gently and it comes back to life...
What is the name of part you are replacing. My car just died as I literally pulled in to my place. All the exact symptoms as other posters.
