Hi all - unfortunately not the best first post - our 2011 Qashqai died when pulling off the drive today - engine died and it won't restart. When the ignition is on all lights are lit on the dashboard, some go out (ABS, traction), but the ECU light stays on - I can't remember if this is normal?


It cranks fine but won't fire, so it's not a flat battery issue. I'm quite used to troubleshooting old Alfas, but this has me stumped.

I used a Bluetooth OBD but it couldn't find any codes and I checked all fuses (visually) and nothing obvious. Does anyone have any ideas on what could cause this, or where I can get Nissan diagnostic software? (I've got various interfaces from other diagnostics packages).

Thanks

Are you in RAC or similar, as besides getting you going, they have good diagnostics kit.?

Since it's a diesel the fuel filter could be block.
