thanks smj, I've looked over that TSB, but what you've said tells me that this could be a bugger to diagnose. But it hasn't done it again and till it does I'll just have to see if it gives out any codes i guess. I'm not great with electrical diagnosis, and sure as he!! not paying the dealership to s...

Ok, some further info on what happened the other day when the Pathfinder went into LIMP mode. When I lost power and looked at the dash, the check engine light was on, the 4wd light was on(but I was in 2wd), the oil light was on, the LCD display that shows if you're in 2wd or 4wd went away completely...

any stored codes? if the problem was indeed an overheated transmission, I'd definitely get fresh fluid in there if the problem was an overheated transmission due to slow uphill driving, i'd be more tempted to put a new radiator in it (un-bypassed) external coolers are at their best with good air flo...

Thanks AZ. I bought one of the cheap WIFI OBD2 modules to pair with an APP and got nothing for the TRANS temps. It did a good job pulling a code and turning off the Check Engine Light though!

Terry, are you towing with just the factory transmission cooler up front or did add a second one?

Thanks smj. After I wr this I saw another post where someone else had the exact same question

khavel

Well a Bullydog representative emailed me back and they're system shows that parameter as something they're product should show. Anyone have one?

khavel

Can anyone confirm if a Bullydog will give me transmission temps in my 05 SE OR?? This info is not easy to track down.

khavel

Thank you for this post! I'm wondering the same thing. Both of mine have splits and cracks too. 2005 with just over 100K.

Well.. theres a spot where it looks like a sticker is supposed to go but no luck. http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w161/truomega/20150418_145657_resized.jpg Im gonna go ahead and do the bypass just to be on the safe side. I am also going to mount a fan on the transmission cooler and a thermal swi...

thanks smj! you've helped me in the past. much appreciated. i guess i didn't know that you could get your hands on a decent radiator for the pathfinder for that kind of money, since i've read on here that Nissan charges $600. also didn't know how much labor to install that radiator would be either. ...

khavel

Not sure about the codes since I d have a reader but I'm fairly certain it was a hot TRANS. Everything else was looking good (coolant temps) and it was going just with no power like I was dragging an anchor. When I pull the TRANS dipstick it was smoking hot. My speeds going up the steep grades were ...

So its been several months since I posted on this forum, which has helped me tremendously in the past! I was lucky enough to discover this forum with my 05 OR at around 90K miles. It was lucky for me that the car never developed the dreaded strawberry milkshake and I succesfully completed the RAD by...

no dice on the tapping :cry: i can't access the service manual on here so i dont know what that black wire is for on the harness coming into the rear wiper motor. i have a ground and i have nearly 12V coming in with the key on but nothing on that black wire even with the rear wiper switch turned to ...

khavel

smj, thanks for the info on the washer tank. i did look a little closer at the rear wiper motor. i'm not the greatest with electrical diag, but was able to use the meter to confirm continuity to the wiper motor and find 11.6V to the motor with the key in the 'on' position. its a little funky b/c the...
