The Nissan Path

First stop is the Windshield shop. Hopefully they disconnected something what I don't know. If they don't find it its off to Nissan.

I tore apart the dash when I got home (leaving it that way until fixed). All the A/C harnesses are connected to the back of the unit. I thought you meant something ...

where is the AC module located?

jetwrangler

Ok so here is an out there one for ya.

05 pathfinder had the windshield replaced today and upon leaving I noticed the entire AC module (automatic) was off. No power at all the orange back light is not even on. Checked all the fuses (i know to check) all are good. I'm probably taking it to Nissan ...

Wow, thanks I guess. I had concluded to leave it in gear and let the truck do the work a month ago. But, it is always nice to see how others think. As to the over thinking how do you think innovations and new ideas come about? Ordinary people (not engineers) have made some pretty ridiculous ...

Is it a local gas station or a big name station?

Sorry my friend, both are local ones. Mac's gas (a local chain) is one. The other Pelahatchie bay trading post.

But your in luck. Since i'm bored at work.

Ok, just topped off with "conventional gasoline" which does not contain ethanol, but i'm sure some detergents are in it. After filling up I used my fuel log app and through the course of 5 days and 314 miles I got 18.77mpg.

I will top off again Thursday night for a trip Friday after work. I will ...

What is this "conventional gasoline" you speak of and where can I get some? No ethanol=good (more power). No detergents=bad (?)???

The Facts: (From wiki)
Because ethanol contains less energy than gasoline, fuel economy is reduced for most 2002 and earlier American FFVs (flexible-fuel vehicles) by ...

I've used the Mobil 1 0w-30 in my jeep. It's the green top correct? Better fuel economy? I did notice with mine prior to lifting it, I got around 19-20 with my V8 at an average speed of 65-70 mph. After I started using Mobil 1 0w-30 I started averaging 21-22 with my V8 at 65-70 mph. Then I got all ...

"Actually in my wife's car, she has a stick and I sometimes downshift to slow the car rather than tapping the brakes. I was taught that this was OK and isn't hard on the engine plus it will save the brakes."

My logic is way different from yours. Brakes are cheap and inexpensive. I would much ...

Yea after my last post I realized I should incorporate a speed into this equation. So on the down hill topping the hill at 40. On the up hill exiting interstate 60 and decreasing. So once again nothing extreme.

You are correct on the once upon a time, I was told the same thing in shop class, but ...

Ok I can see your point on Brake Fade. But really, its maybe a 150ft hill stretched out in 1/4 mile. It just more less annoys me to feel the truck downshift because i use the brake to start slowing down for a stoplight at the end of the 1/4 mile.

There is nothing "high performance or steep" about ...

Thank the Gov for this one. All vehicles I think 04 and up have to have TPMS. Battled with mine for a while luckily turned out to be something else. There is a sequence to re-activate them. Its similar to turning on a Bluetooth with your phone. I know you have to let the vehicle sit for 20 minutes ...

Sorry to stir the pot, but i want to hear what y'all think. I have noticed coming down 2 particular hills to and from work my 05 pathfinder shifts down and really ramps up the RPM when it does this. I have started to slip it in to Neutral at the top of the hill and coast down using the brakes to ...

The guy at the tire store persuaded me to come in Saturday and let them check it out. It was a 2 inch piece of steel the size of a screwdriver shaft stuck 2 inches shy of the outside edge. WOW so glad i took his advice, fixed for free and sent me on my way. I will continue to buy tires from them. He ...
