Re: I just received a Stop Start System Fault....O2 Sensor Fault

Popped off the c...

Re: Technical Diagrams

Hi guys, Does anyone have a good source for technical diagrams? Electronics mainly but everything would be great. I have tried zinref, but it seems to be pdfs with low res pictures. When you zoom in to read small writing, it is nearly impossible. Thanks ... The document available as above does not ...

Re: Start-Stop question (thermostat issue?)

Seems odd that the engine would be stopped when headlights are on. Puts quite an extra load on the Battery when restarting. Unfortunately little documentation exists on the SS system.

OBD2 is the current standard both electrically and mechanically. You may pick up DTCs?

SS will not operate for a number of reasons that don't include a fault. SS will be disabled on engine, ABS. BCM, Battery inefficiency faults generally and display an SS error.

Re: I just received a Stop Start System Fault....O2 Sensor Fault

Its a simple electrical heater element failure...not the O2 sensing element itself. So the sensor is not able to get up to temperature and operate (switch on). Wrong response here and the ECU will flick up the orange MIL (Check Engine). Redex won't effect this as the heater is a resistor element emb...

Re: No turbo, anti-skid and ABS lights

P0380 is related to problems with the GLOW CONTROL SYSTEM (GCS). That would be glow plugs and harness faults as stated in Nissan diagnostics. SInce the GCS controls the glow plugs as regads temperature etc you might check that. Problems here would likely stop the Turbo activating or delay by the ECU...

Re: Replacing the Torque Converter

I get the feeling from the invoice that they are changing the Torque Converter, oil seal, O ring and Filter after removing the gearbox and replace. That'll include dismantling some suspension and steering arms on the car pax side. A CVT gearbox is well over £5k if memory serves. Search ebay France a...

Re: desperately seeking information - Car cutting out on power

I am desperately seeking information as the car is central our lives. I own a Nissan Qashqai Automatic 2012 Accenta 1.6 petrol and I am based in UK. It did only 55 K miles so far and has lot to offer. I have been having sleepless nights with this car as I strongly believe its minor issue but the me...
