Re: J10 rear brake slider pins

Many thanks Andy!! Rubber ended one goes on the bottom according to that!! Surprising. Thanks again helped a lot. Changing them as soon as it stops raining!! £10 for 4 pins on eBay, £40 from local supplier! Probably £400 from Nissan :) Cheers Matt <a class="vglnk" href="https://m.yout...

J10 rear brake slider pins

Hi All On replacing my rear pads last week noticed the slider pins were corroded and sticking. Took them out cleaned up and refitted but had some issues with pads binding so ordered new slider pins. My question is does anyone know where the pin with the rubber tip goes? Top or bottom? I mixed them u...

I used the car to go to Gatwick for a weeks business trip, disconnected the battery and reconnected on my return 7 days later. All problems have gone and over 1500 miles done since. No issues. Strange but hopefully won’t se...

Re: rear lights (LED) always on- fixed!!

The Tail Light system is rather complicated. It is switched ON/OFF through the CAN Bus system, so not a straight forward/simple switching system as we might expect. Its computer controlled (CPU) and for some reason the Tail Lights are being incorrectly commanded by this CPU. Fault could be a bad sw...

Re: rear lights (LED) always on- fixed!!

Neither of those two DTCs come up in Nissan Diagnostics for your car. In fact all Brake Control DTCs are C11xx codes. Brake Light Sw simply feeds from the Battery (via foot brake) to 3 rear stop lamps...not complicated. It does however signal the Body Control Module for some reason? Its a bit of my...

p0545 2011 Qashqai K9K 1.5Dci

Hi All I have a red engine light and code p0545 coming up on the reader. Looking at these forums and searching youtube, looks an easy fix by cleaning out the hose to the sensor. The problem I have is the hose in the videos shown is not in the same location on my car? There is a similar looking plug ...
