If not take each one of your coils at the time, place the end of the coil close to a ground like your car chasis or engine block, far from fuel lines, crank your car and see if its has a spark. For about 10 seconds, it would turn but not kick over. The problem has continued to occur repeatedly and is getting worse. In particular, it has happened when I have driven a few hours and I stop for gas. Well, the crankshaft sensor is trying to prevent you to start because something is wrong. Hi I have a 2005 Altima 2. Seems Nissan has a protective feature that when the sender senses a engine overheat, it automatically tirns the engine off.
The crank position sensor has failed. The fuel pump supposes to hold pressure, when the engine is turn off, for the next start. She then cut the car off. Ran for about a hour drive to store when I came out to start it wouldn't start so I put new fuel pump in. I have already replaced the battery, recall's have been performed and I will never purchase another Nissan product which is evident by my current H3, but I am stuck how to proceed with fixing this Nissan clunker. Service Engine indicator went off but came back on, then latter for no reason it went off again and then wouldn't you know it came back on. I read that a nissan micra had a problem with the anti-theft chip in the key.
We have the same problem. Judder occurred immediately when attempting pad bedding in procedure. I unhooked Crank Sensor and it starts. It wasn't sluggish, winding or clicking at all. Nobody seems to know how to fix this issue. Driving along foot on accelerator -no power -my son and husband pressed their foot all way down on the pedal does nothing. Are you sure you are giving it enough time? If not disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? I changed spark plugs just because it needed it anyway.
Usually about 10 or 15 minutes when most defrosters turn off automatically. Car turn on but the fans didn't come. Have your dealer check for fuel pressure leaks. Still, motor mounts should not break! Answered on Jun 28, 2018 There could be a whole lot of reasons. I am also going to see if the coils are getting power with the key on.
Has been fine since then, until last month when it started intermittently. Find the pump fuse, pull it and look to see if it's good. My horn worked and my lights were working so I really don't think I needed another battery. Did it start and die? I will just use the last occurrence date as the 'incident date' because it took the longest time to get the key out. You meed to diagnose why you have no spark when the sensors are all plugged in and yet you get spark back when you unplug one sensor.
The brakes are making a lot of noise at least that is what I think the noise is. Was the gas tank low on fuel when that occurs? The car acts as if it's flooded, cranking but not firing. I just took my car to a repair shop and had the crank and camshaft sensor replaced. The service engine light comes on also. This afternoon, I went to start the car and it started just fine. I am so fustrated with this car and the only reason I don't get rid of it is because its paid off and I don't want another car payment. The engine has 150,000 miles on it.
It's not a question of money but that of integrity. Try contacting a dealer service or tech rep about the system- how long it should stay on, how to diagnose, where such parts are located, etc. On Monday morning they called and said my cam sensor, motor mount, battery, and rear brakes needed to be replaced. Service department is talking to Nissan engineering, I am driving a rental car for the 2nd time. I had that checked and it was not the problem. Rear brakes need work also. If no start, check for timing, compression and a clogged exhaust.
I googled different combinations of basically: crankshaft sensor disconnect start and found a rare few forum topics of people with different cars not being able to crank unless the sensor was disconnected, and the typical response was that there might be something wrong with the camshaft not just the sensor! I owned a Honda Accord in 97 and never experienced so many car problems that this Altima has had. After trying about 15-20 times, it will start and dark smoke emitted from the exhaust system. Have had spark plugs replaced. Even when it does start, its not driveable. The dealer said these circumstances shouldn't cause flooding, but has been unable to find any problems and now refuses to research it further. Turns out it was the temperature sensor.
Did you buy the kit from Nissan or did you buy aftermarket sensors? If not, sont cha ge spark plugs right away but for sure you have a spark problem. Then it got to be that it wouldn't start at all unless when I cranked it, the second the engine fired I had to hit gas pedal, too soon or to late, engine would stumble and I would have to wait. I had the codes read and they were crankshaft position sensor and engine speed circuit. Any body has an ideea what would be the problem? This morning, my sister went to crank it up and both the tcs and abs light came on. My key was stuck in the ignition for 5 days the last time it happened. Yesterday my car wouldn't start, not even turn over, and again all the lights and radio would still come on. If it does, you're lucky.
In some cases I have to let the car sit for 40 minutes before getting it to start up. May be some in the coummunity who experience harsh winter can give some feedback. I made the decision to reset the code and see if it would come back before taking the car in. The lack of power has happened five times. I proceeded to change the battery, and also change the spark plugs. It will only fire when cam sensor is plugged in and crank is unplugged.
