Relays stuck in older Nissan receptacle trays under hood

1998 Pathfinder All because my gf likes to honk at fast drivers 😆: Horn stopped working. Isolated to the horn relay and/or relay receptacle wiring. Relay would not come out due to defective receptacle design. If one was to cut the white plastic where you see I deformed it, relay would probably pull ...

Re: 1998 3.3L VG33E partial dismantle and rebuild

I have measure tools and different sized bearings. The crank is exposed. I can remove it easily at this point eh?

1998 3.3L VG33E partial dismantle and rebuild

So I have the old motor block with intake removed sitting in a tire on a pallet with the crankshaft facing mostly upward so I can access it. Oil pan is off. The motor was yanked because the crankshaft had one or more bad main and rod journals from bearings not spinning, but loose, or not fitted corr...

Re: Relay (horn) stuck in relay tray

Horn didn't work. Was relay. But it would not come out. Apparently one of those lifetime relay specials, lol. So I tugged, poked, pryed, and cranked, and whacked it over 2 short sessions. Still, she was not coming out to play. So I tugged harder, and then whacked her harder with vice grips pliers. L...

Relay (horn) stuck in relay tray

Howdy. 1998 Pathfinder. Horn is inop. Fuses are good. Horns work with 12v jumper. I tapped on the relay and got it to quickly honk 2 or 3 times with the right tapping. But the relay will not remove! I've tried poking with pick and small flathead screw driver all around all places and tugging pretty ...

EGR control solenoid wire tests. Do you have comparables?

1998 Pathfinder 3.3L, automatic, 164,000 miles, stock. Runs real good. So I'm having a recurring P1400 EGRC Solenoid Valve error come back after erasing codes. It reappears almost immediately after being erased. I don't have any operability issues. No other codes but one that came up after I started...

Re: P1400 EGRC Solenoid Valve control wire

Re: P1400 EGRC Solenoid Valve control wire

Hey you're on multiple platforms! 😆 Glad it's just not me! I cut it off at 4, but I have about 10 forums I found.

Will do, after I locate the ECM plug. Thanks!

Re: P1400 EGRC Solenoid Valve control wire

When I tested the Solenoid plug wire for 12v with ignition key on, I used the plug ground wire as ground for voltmeter and got 12v. That ground wire is the control from ECM. It should have been Open and I shouldn't have gotten 12v reading. That's why the tests shown online have the voltmeter ground ...

P1400 EGRC Solenoid Valve control wire

I have the repeating (after erased numerous times, but no symptoms) P1400 code for 1998 Nissan Pathfinder 3.3, 164,000 miles. It was throwing this same code with an older motor, and still is with replacement motor installed last week. I have 12v at the wire plug when it's unplugged and key on. 12v a...

98 automatic transmission overdrive/ 4th delay

My 1998 Pathfinder 163,000 miles started to delay shift into 4th/overdrive. Fuid is full and clean. O/D switch doesn't do anything to help it upshift, and it seems to work fine (light comes on when switched). I can get it to shift into 4th by slightly letting off accelerator and then it goes into 4t...

Fastener index for Nissans?

New to me 1998 Pathfinder 3.3L 4x4 SE, 164,000 miles. Used motor swapped. I had a mechanic swap the motor and one of his helpers misplaced a few items. Is there a known fastener reference for Nissans anywhere? This bolt (custom hold lol) was found laying inside the motor bay. Nothing near it holds t...

1998 Pathfinder front differential mounting bolts (8)

Hello. I have not posted on this site for a while as my Pathy was down. Now the 8 bolts on each end of the front differential that mount it to the frame have been lost with the engine swap. Does anyone know the length, size and thread pitch of these 8 bolts? I think all 8 are identical. I have calle...
