If your engine is a four cylinder, the firing order is as follows; from left to right on the block..1-2-3-4...look at the top of the distributor cap: counter clockwise from #1, the order is...1-3-4-2. If your engine is a six cylinder, face the front of the engine...left bank is: 1-3-5...right bank is: 2-4-6...look at top of distributor cap starting with #1...read counter clockwise...1-2-3-4-5-6. Let me know how you make out. Master [email protected]

Why would my 2003 Nissan Xterra A/C blower and radio lose power 2 days ago?

Question edited for clarity.
Question moved to model category.

There are three fuses and a relay that cover the blower. Radio probably has an inline fuse, but they are also monitored by the Body control Module.

My nissan xterra 2000 v6 right side cylinder plug is having black fluffy substance stuck on the plug

Sounds like carbon fouling. Easy fix is run an aggressive fuel injector cleaner as recommended by your local parts store through the gas tank. Also ensure that spark plug wire is firmly attached. If you took the plug out-you know it is a pain to get to it! A easy way to see is to start motor and idle, pull #6 wire off at distributor when it should be attached to plug and see if the idle changes. If it doesn't, the wire is not plugged on the spark plug or the rotor/distributor may be faulty.

Another more difficult task may be the removal and replacement of the fuel injectors them selves (or cleaning by a specialty shop). Good Luck!

Where does the flasher relay go on a 2002 nissan exterra?

I have been searching for this same answer with little to no luck. It appears that on 2001, it's up above the drivers side brake pedal. However, I could not find it there. The wiring diagram I looked at showed it to be literally in the middle of the wiring harness, (behind the stereo). I have not had the gumption to try and find it, but that's where it appears to be. I love my Xterra, but hate that the company sees fit to put an essential relay well out of reach. There is no earthly reason this relay is not "plug-n-play" right around the fuse panel...Totally stupid...
