I would look at bleeding the cooling system properly as the symptoms you describe are those for an airlock in your heater system. You should be toasty warm with 2 miles if everything is working properly. Do you have antifreeze in the system? Is the weather freezing at the moment? Is the thermostat working? This would be my top suspect if after bleeding all the air out there is still no heat. It is easy and cheap to replace the thermostat. Another thing to look at is a partially worn out or not spinning water pump impeller so that the water does not circulate properly at under 2k revs.... Could you please get back to us if you have found the solution as it will help others.

If you are going to scrap it, you can use the fuel pump in the tank itself. If it has a leak, use a manual or battery operated fuel transfer pump through the filler. https://www.google.com/search?q=fuel+transfer+pump ..

Hello. It seems your Nissan's alternator stopped recharging; causing your Pathfinder to run on battery. The battery became discharged not to 'power' the starter yet light the lights. Recharge your car's battery then start your car. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

You can't , best bet call a mobile lock smith . He'll cut you a new key and program it .

Hi Eduardo:

Install the cylinder head with a new gasket. Apply clean engine oil to the bolt threads and seats, then install the bolts with washers (beveled edges up) in the correct position. Note that bolts 4, 5, 12 and 13 measure 5.00 in. (127mm), and are longer than the others. The other bolts are 4.17 in. (106mm) long.

Tighten the bolts in the proper sequence, in the following stages:
Tighten all bolts, in order, to 22 ft. lbs. (29 Nm).
Tighten all bolts, in order, to 43 ft. lbs. (59 Nm).
Loosen all bolts completely.
Tighten all bolts, in order, to 22 ft. lbs. (29 Nm).
Tighten all bolts, in order, to 40-47 ft. lbs. (54-64 Nm). Or, if you have an angle torque wrench available, tighten them an additional 60-65 degrees.


Hope this helps; remember to rate this answer. Good luck.

To be safe, go to a parts store and most will check the codes for free. Then you will know.

Is there 12volts at the battery?if so and nothing is working at all,there may be a wiring issue.If the battery is below 12volts then a charging issue may be the problem.
