Harness connector to intake control valve Bank 2 broken!

Need some advice. I have a 2002 maxima SE auto and the harness connection to the Intake valve timing control solenoid bank 2 is broken, took it to nissan a few days ago to change the valve cover, gasket etc. Now I have code p0021 and the guy told me it was the connection to the solenoid that was bad. Nissan does not sell just the clip i would have to buy the entire harness ($1000) please help. Car has random misfires.

Maybe Aackshun can get 'just' the solenoid to you?

Yeah Aackshun works at Nissan Unlimited in Houston...probably the best source for Nissan-only parts I know of.

Yes, look Aackshun up. I know that code all too well. I have both P0011 and P0022, but because I have Haltech and cam timing is advanced and stock ECU is getting a different signal than what it is used to because of the Haltech sending an advanced signal. Does your car take long to crank? Sometimes that over advance can do that. What I believe they are doing is trying to sell you the ENTIRE engine harness. I see what you are talking about. I have a 2009 Maxima Harness that I bought off Aackshun when I was doing the 2009 TB just to get the pigtail (connector) off the 2009 TB. I had the same issue......no one wanted to sell just the connector. I ended up having to buy the entire harness. I dont know if the IVT solenoid connectors are the same for the 2009 and the 5.5 gen motors.....let me check the FSM and I'll get back to you. If they are the same I can cut the connector off the harness and send it to you......only for $900 . Sike just joking....LOL. Let me get back to you.......

EDIT....looks like 09 connector on IVT is different. The 09 seems to have 4 wire connections and the 02-03 only have 2 wire connections. I would recommend just buying an entire 02-03 used Maxima harness from Aackshun.....probablt be about $200, but better than the STEALERSHIP $1000.

Actually my car does not take long to crank at all the only problem is when the car idles it vibrates and if i throw it into Neutral it eases up. That is the only symptom i have along with SES light and random misfires.

It's not repairable? Like shove it back in the clip with gorilla glue?
