Exhaust system malfunction most likely the problem

Are you sure this is the correct code #? I not sure if this pertains to Nissan

No alarm discussions on an open forum. Take your proof of ownership and an identity document for yourself to a Nissan dealer and get the job done there.......don't encourage thieves...

Google that code..Google is your friend..

sounds like it is not shifting out of 3rd gear. count the shifts.

flush transmission thoroughly and use additive, worked on my 98 pathfinder been 1 year still o.k.

Just one screw and one connector. Then pull it out

Your tail lights or your brake lights? check your light switch is in the off position. otherwise I would suspect that the brake switch which is above the brake pedal under the dash has done it's dash (broken..pardon the pun) to test this theory, yank off one of the wires or the plug that connects to this switch. No lights at the rear..it's the switch. unscrew and replace switch....

Fuse blown, switch stuffed, control module in door fritzed, window motor brushes worn out. please get back to us with your solution so we can help others in the future. PS other Nissan motors can be slipped in from other Nissan models to fix a motor problem....and much cheaper..and if you go to a wrecker, make sure you get the correct motor for the correct side, yes Martha, the motors are Right side only, and Left side only, but the same same front and rear on that partcular side. Refer to the serial numbers on the motors, get one that ends in the same number.......

It depends on what damage has been done to the linkage. If it moves when it shouldn't, or doesn't move when it should, it will need replacement or lubrication or tightening or loosening. Could you get back to us with your solution to the problem as this may help someone else in the future? Thanks.

I presume by now that you know the answer to this question..but if you had gone to a much nicer mechanic and asked him to check scan the fault codes and then delete them, it might have cost you only a smile and thanks. if you know how many times you had to drive the car to get the light to go off could you get back to us with that info as it may help someone in the future? Thanks.

The brake light switch is most likely sticking. If you tap it with you finger it will most likely operate again. However, I would recommend replacing it. MOst switches are held in place with a nut on the back side of the switch that must be loosened for removal. Others sre held in place by a bushing that will require gentle pull or a twist and pull to remove

Disconnect electrical connector and remove switch. Some switches have a nut on the back side that needs to be loosened for removal and some are slightly pressed into a bushing that can be removed with a gentle pull. Upon installing new switch, make sure it is inserted.adjusted properly for brake light function
