Yes. 2.3 ohms resistance. I cannot comment on your answer Robert Wood
2.3 ohms resistance ???
Testimonial: "Yes sir. Thank you"
Sounds like it could be a bad temp sensor. Have you tried pumping the gas pedal while you crank it with the temp sensor plugged in?
Bad coolant temp sensor I would have to say.
SOURCE: ignition on but will not crank over
Easiest way to tell if it is your starter is to have someone hold the key on and lightly tap on the starter. If it is the starter this should do the trick. If not, you have an electrical problem somewhere.

Hello erosgirl32....according to the service manual for the 1.8 litre sentra, it is located under the starter at the rear of the engine.
This is not an easy job for the do-it-your-selfer.
Good luck...i hope this helps, please rate me a fixya.

check your fuel filter and changing the plugs couldnt hurt. make sure you use ngk or nd plugs for this. i am a big proponent of manufacturer parts. they were designed for the vehicle.

theres always one on the intake manifold working its way down to catalytic convertor is the oxygen sensor 1 heater circuit(pre cat conv) signal while terminal #25 is oxygen sensor 2 heater circuit (post cat conv)
SOURCE: where is the fuel filter located in a 2004 nissan
inside the fuel pump which is inside the tank. its a complete unit. just changed one today

Did you try resistance testing or voltage testing the wiring ?
I have not done that yet. But thank you, I will try that.
I removed the connector and checked the wires for voltage and I get no nothing.
Did you test it with the key on ?
Yes sir, definitely with the key on. I had also pulled the MAF before trying the coolant temp sensor and that didn't allow it to start.
Does the mass air flow sensor have power to it ?
I have not checked that yet but was going to be my next step. Power to MAF and checking the power to the cam sensor and crank sensor as well. I did just change the crank sensor but did not test the connector or wires. Did pull the spark plugs and have spark. Thank you so much for all your help.
Will it start and stay running with the Temp sensor unhooked ?
Yes. It starts and runs great with temp sensor unplugged
What do the spark plugs look like ?
I pulled the wires and they all had spark but the plugs looked a little worn out so the spark plugs are brand new.
What brand plugs and what are they gapped at ?
They are NGK Laser OE and gapped at .044 per my specs. Once it's running without the coolant temp sensor, it's running fabulous.
I'm thinking the engine coolant temperature sensor may be leaning the mixture too much or shorting the five volt reference .
Were the old plugs black in color ?
A little bit. Not totally burnt but definitely worn
Did you get it running ?
I finally did. Replaced coolant temp sensor and the connector (had to order the connector online) and starts and runs great! Thank you for all your help!
Most vehicles in the last 25 years or so when then coolant temp sensor is bad it will run like dukey or not run at all!
