2005 Nissan Pathfinder Car. I need help. Car Turned Off!

Postby Loi617 » Sat Nov 14, 2009 7:35 pm

i own a 2005 nissan pathfinder 4x2 RWD 4.0

84,xxx Miles on it
with 2 accidents,
1 was in front bumper
1 was in rear bumper

ALL THE STUFF THAT BEEN REPLACED IN THIS CAR
-Fuel Meter Replaced by warranty
-Oil sending unit replaced at $90 my money.
-New Tires
-New OEM CD PLAYER





NO ENGINE DAMAGE! NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED!
only bumper was damage.

So i was driving today on the highway around 80mph on cruise. and all of a sudden the cruise control turned off. i thought it was a glitch or something so i turned it back on. and all of the sudden, i see the check engine light blink on and off a couple times. and then the car just completely turned off on the highway O.O steering wheel locked. so i had to turn it slowly to the left so then i was on the emergency lane. i try to turn the car back on but it wont start. its not the battery cause i got a NEW battery replaced not to long ago. and all my powers work. i try starting the car and its like the car is having a hard time to turn on. the wwhole car shakes a bit when i try to turn it back on. So i waited like a couple mins and it turns on but car feels kinda weak. i had a random guy came and try to jump start my car and the car still wouldnt turn on. so i know its not the battery. so then later i waited a bit more and i turn it on it worked. and drove for like 2 mins or so and it started to turn off again O_o so yupp was stuck for 10 mins and turn it back on and it work. Drove straight home and car is fine now. anyone know the issue?

-electrical?
-alternator?
-spark plug?

I believe he meant if the CEL is* on....and CEL is short for the "check engine light".

OK, so he was saying you should take it to a shop or a dealer and have the code read to see what it says was the problem...that's what he meant.

Take is to Autozone or any major car parts retailer and ask them to read the check engine light codes. Once you have the codes, post them here so people have better idea on what to tell you regarding possible causes for this malfunction.

You need to have the ECM = engine control module read to find TROUBLE CODE. Since the Pathy runs and does not run, I would say you have a bad electric fuel pump, or the ECM is bad..you can guess all day long but the code is what ya need. Welcome to sophisticated electronics age, in which the ECM tells you what is wrong.

Yup thats the first thing i thought, a prob with the fuel pump or the IPDM may be. Get vehicle read for the codes.
