Anyone have experience on this diagnosis from Nissan? The dealer told me they had never seen it before and that they do not know what it is. I thought it may have been a "seasonal" joke but they typed it on my service paperwork. My SES light is off.

Oh yeah, I had to tow the car to the dealer because it would not start. It cranked fine but no fuel was getting to the head. They had to recode my key and there was not a good explanation for why it stopped working. They told me my Viper responder alarm that taps into the starter kill on the PCM caused the problem. They also seemed to think that many of my PCM wires had been tapped but I assure you that only one wire has been tapped.

 

Leave it to Nissan to blame the problem on something else.

 

Well, it only took 6 days for my temper to cool enough to find the problem. There were actually two. One was that the place the car was at when it died, they checked all the fuel pump and injector wireing. Except they never reconnected the one injector harness. The other problem was an EGR vacuum hose. I looked for that thing for at least 30 minutes a week ago and couldn't find where the thing was supposed to go. Then found it in about 20 seconds today. Now the car runs just like it did before I took it to the garage. Damn certified idiots.

 

Dontchya just love paying "experts" to f'up your car? That's what drove me to DIY in the 1st place. When you want it done right, sometimes you just gotta do it yourself, unfortunately.

Glad all's well.
