Yes, it should. Rough idle, especially with the A/C on and clunks from the engine bay are signs of bad mounts. Easy test is to have a helper firmly put their foot on the brake and then rev the engine while in reverse & drive. If the engine bucks and looks like it's trying to crawl out, the mounts are bad.

You should be aware of the fact that your electronic mounts can damage your ECU; if not, read this thread: https://maxima.org/forums/5th-genera...d-seconds.html .

B/c it only came with one. The harness will be present with a red plastic cap over the end.
