The Nissan Path

I was driving my 2004 Pathfinder today and it suddenly stalled. Most of the warning lights came on for a brief second, then turned off except for SLIPS, VDC, and service engine (just changed my oil). I tried starting it several times, finally turned over and haven't had a problem the rest of the day ( started it several ties and drove very short distances). Thinking it may be the battery? IDK, it seems to be running great now. Anyone else have any experience with this?

Any codes?

I've had this happen with a bad crank position sensor. Cam sensor will do similar.

I would definitely have the battery and charging system checked/tested. Make sure you're battery connections are clean and tight and charging system voltage should be 13.2-15.5 volts, with and without loads "on" and both at idle and at 3000 RPM.
I would also check for stored codes. If the ECM detects an engine management problem, it will disable traction control, which causes the VDC/SLIP warning lights to illuminate.

The code I pulled is p1163, so oxygen sensors

Not oxygen "sensors," but, specifically, a lean shift monitoring code for the upstream oxygen sensor on Bank 2, which would be the left bank, or driver's side. This could be caused by a faulty, upstream oxygen sensor on Bank 2, but this could also trigger because of intake leaks, faulty fuel injector(s) or low fuel pressure. Also note that if there is a charging system malfunction, it could trigger false codes, so I still wouldn't rule out a charging system issue. If you do replace the oxygen sensor, I would recommend NTK or Denso brand.
