I kept swapping out relays until I finally got tired of a bandaid fix to problem. I finally a new ipdm and solved it permanently. The Titan are known to have problem with the older ipdm. Now my starter needs replacing at 150,000 miles. I don't have skills or tools, but will get it done for cheaper than taking it to dealer.
I don't know how to say it but thank you thank you brother you have no clue no idea how much you saved my life I'm in tears right now let me just tell you I'm a single father I ain't going to get into everything but I'm in tears right now bro God bless you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you
Before you changed the relay.... what was the symptom you were getting? Would it start randomly or not at all? I have a 2005 and it starts most of the time. About 2-3 times a week it will not start on the first try.... but will then start normally on 2nd or 3rd try.
Thank you! My 2012 Titan just hit 103k and i have been having a problem with a dead key from time to time and was dreading changing the starter since it is in a brutal spot to change. I'll try this fix and hope for the best. That little tip of swapping the relays is a lifesaver!
This will help temporary but you have to buy same relay again from nissan if they are not selling the whole ipdm (, fuse box) ive done it and ignore it but after some time itll fail, then i got 2 from junk yard, changed one and keep one as a spare and everythig working well 👍👍👍
Thank you! I'm so glad I saw your video first! I was getting really worried about the impact my wallet was going to feel for my sudden no start problem. Disconnected the battery, cleaned the terminals really well and did your relay swap... fired up right away, nice and strong! Thank you thank you thank you!
Hello, I don't get this at all because to me you just swapped out the starter relay with the ignition relay. I have swapped out my ECM relay with my Foglamp relay and both of those relays are at the bottom of the IPDM as you look at it. ECM would be the third one from right and the fog is the first one from right as you look at the ipdm as shown in your video. I own a 2005 titan LE but again I don't understand how your fog lamp relay is at the top row? You have the right part number for the relay but thats for the ecm relay not the starter? The original starter relay has a number 6 on it and "acm33221 M28". What model of armada do you have and can you tell me what the 4 relays at the bottom of the ipdm do for your model? I love the fix but something had to be different on your vehicle.
About to try this now we are stuck around the corner from our house but luckily across the street from auto zone wish me luck bought this truck yesterday 😪
Another thing to do if it has issues with starting, replace the key. The chip inside gets damaged if you drop it too often. If the plastic key breaks, that's a sure sign of damage. A locksmith through AAAnshould charge $120 for one key or $180 for two. If you've tried the fusible links, the ground wire, and the filter/pump and it still isn't starting GET A NEW KEY
I have a 2009 that was having the same issues. I could usually take the positive and negative battery terminal connectors off, and touch them together for a short time to "drain the capacitors" .. as the local Nissan dealer said. I recently swapped out the IPDM with the newest black one, and then let it sit for the week (its not my daily driver), had the exact same problem when I tried to start it. The new IPDM e/r had all new fuses in it, so that can't be the issue. This has been going on since it was under warranty. Noone has been able to fix it.
Well the relay you replaced is not the one you think it is. The one that goes out causing the issue is the ECM relay and it’s the second one not the first one and this was only on the models with the white IPDM the later ones had the black IPDM. There was a recall on those at one time. Also per service manual the relays were not supposed to be removed and replaced as they said damage can happen to the terminals but it didn’t stop them from being replaced under the warranty for the recall. That keeps their parts cost down
If this doesn’t fix your problem replace the $20 fuse block attached to your battery and if that doesn’t fix it replace the $22 ignition switch under you dash. If none of those fix your problem you need a new starter.
Thank you. Hope it works for my 2012 because it’s over $700 to replace the starter. It’s also hard to find honest mechanics that will address the true issues.
Parts guy also said that those white ipdm boards are shity and the replacement is a black one which is amazing in comparison to the old white ones. But again it would cost $500 for my particular Titan
I have an 08 Nissan Titan pro 4x. I just replaced the starter. It turns on, but sometimes it has trouble. Will keep cranking but won’t turn on. I’ll have to keep trying for a few mins and eventually it turns over. I’m was suggested by a friend to replace the fuel pump.
Hello n thanks for the informative and helpful video. I have a 2005 Titan and for the last 6 mos to a year I've had an occurrence where once in a great while I will turn the key to start my truck n I either get nothing or I get a very low pitched and rather quiet Ding sound.... However on the 2nd try my truck starts right up. What was once only occurring once in a while is starting to happen more and more often. Is it possible that I may possibly have the same easy fix solution that you had with your truck??
This little piece of information has me so greatful, you just got me out of a parking lot I’ve been sitting in for 30 minutes about to call a tow truck, has been giving me issues for about a month, swapped over that little module with the fog light and bam started up! THANK YOU
My Nissan Titan starts most of the time but sometimes it doesn’t crank until a few attempts. Auto shop checked battery, starter and alternator and they were all fine. They couldn’t find the issue. I wonder is this it????
I had 2005 Armada doing the same thing, I replaced the starter and work fine for several months with no problem. Replacing the starter is not an easy job because it is located in between the top of the engine and the intake manifold. Good luck!
Thank you, Thank you!!! My 2013 Titan has been having this intermittent issue for a long time. And after 3 mechanics and days in the shop NOBODY could figure this out!! Today was the last straw as it sat in the driveway unable to start.... I watched This Video and Success!! My mechanic is getting me a new relay and tightening the box...
So think I have this problem. I have a 2010 Armada. Is fuse compartment same spot in my car? Car won’t start and battery is reflecting as having plenty of charge. After a few turns it starts finally. Which fuse part # do I get? And replace fuse #4 from left to right?
Sir, I have Armada 2012 and I have the same problem, but the relay box is different from yours and I couldn’t know which relay to replace if you can help please
Currently experiencing similar symptoms on a 2004 titan. I've replaced some relays but continue to have problems starting. I checked your starter replacement video as well but im wondering what made you decide to replace the starter? Sometimes if I fiddle with the steering wheel or jiggle some wires under the steering wheel I can get it to start. I'm thinking it may be a wiring issue as I've already resoldered some cold solder joints in the odometer panel but I guess it could also be the starter. Just wondering if there's any thing I can do to verify my starter needs replacing. Thanks for your videos, very helpful!
I began to have some more starting issues several months after I changed the relay so I figured it was the starter selenoid and I was right. No more starting issues.
If you have that issue again try replacing the fuel pump relay which is on the bottom row of relays on the IPDM. I think it's the 3rd from the left. Being a former nissan tech in Alaska that was the most common issue with no starts on those and the first thing we looked at. Most of the time that is what the problem turned out to be so much that they issued a recall for it.
Hi, Fredeick, I wonder if you can help is, We own a titan 2004, It starts and a few seconds later it turns off, we have changed the fuel pump, one filter, and another few thanks, and it does the same. I really apreciate the help, thanks
It could be a number of things. First off is the security key on when you turn the key to the on position? if so then that is your problem. if not try replacing the fuel pump relay. Cheap enough to go ahead with. If that isn't it then you have a spare cause it will go out one day. Next is check fuel pressure when turning key on. You should get somewhere in the ball park of 45 psi to 55 psi. if not then fuel pump (I know you replaced it already but I have seen them bad out of the box.) or something in line to the port. If you have pressure start it and see what the pressure is while it runs. If pressure drops off then dies probably your pump or could be something with security issue or ECM (Unlikely but possible.) Other than that I would have to see it for myself. I suck at diagnosing other than in person.
Do you have a email where I can talk to you, Im in Arizona, Im not sure where are you, but we already take it to the shop buy they said they dont find anything. and they tols us to take to Nissan dealer, but we think they are expensive, Im so glad you answer me. Could I have your email to talk to you, please and thanks very much.
acm33201 is what i pulled in that first slot on my 06 titan . i went to nissan dealer they gave me a cw29e relay saying that's what I needed. I replaced it, at first it took a,while to start like it didn't register. But ever since then it has started perfect. So idk so far so good
I did exactly shown on video and my truck started up with no problems. I should have a closer look. Because i swapped the two and truck started and fog lights still work.. thanks
Could this be what's wrong on my 2006 Titan if every once in awhile I turn the key and just get one click sometimes at the same time I can turn it back and forth and it will start sometimes it'll start first crank but most of the time I just get one click thank you
I wish I had seen this video earlier... took it into the shop after trying to figure out for a couple hours why it wouldn't start. The shop ended up changing the whole board for $290 plus labor.
My '08 Titan has a black relay box with less relay slots. I've seen a diagram that pints to the ignition relay but I don't know which one is the starter relay. 🙁
Trying to fix my friends Titan. No start…no crank… no click… no dash lights, except door ajar… brand new battery. Tail lights come on, fuses look fine…lights in the cab work. Windows don’t work.
I have a 2017 Nissan armada with a push start end it is not starting. When I push the break the abs module sounds like it’s wanting to start But just makes a winding or wheezing sound but won’t actually start. How do you know which relay it is to change out? Can anyone help me with this?
Well sir, I'm gonna try that my titan 04, has just started the issue of not cranking over here and there especially in cold weather we just had here eastern US. I hope this corrects the problem. I really if I don't have too change the starter. But if I do I must.
no disrespect but you're changing the starter relay and the ignition out the ECM and the fog lights are on the bottom row second one over is ECM and the last one fog lights
You Sir are correct. I screwed up. Thanks. I have annotated the video to reveal the correct relay, indeed is the 4th one over, on the bottom, from the left (front fog lamp relay). Thanks again.
@@LegacyBridge If you go to the parts department at your Nissan dealership request Control Unit -1P 284B7-CW29E. That is the relay you will need to correct this problem. You will have to go through three or four engine start engine stop sequences before the problem goes completely away, but this is the relay you need.
Hey where do you find that specific part?? I can’t find it on the autozone website or any auto store near me , is this something that needs to be ordered like on Nissan website or any other car part website
@@homesteadprepper so I initially pulled and replaced the starter one without replacing the fog lamp one. Now I replaced the fog lamp one with the bad starter one and everything went straight away. Weirdly also my odometer reading which shows only the lower half of the numbers usually started showing the complete readout for a brief period. 🤷♂️
hello guys. i 'm not a tech..but i try. all of these. check all fuses....okay swamp those relay's.....okay replace the fuel pump...waist of money..because the old one i try it out and is good... so right now. i can't get the fuel pump yo work... some one have something else...??
I would check to see if you actually have 12 volts at the fuse and then see if you have voltage at the relay, then at the fuel pump. You could have a bad wire or more likely a bad ground. I've also seen batteries go bad that still real 12.5 volts with a meter but have no amperage to run things.
Mine is intermittent, almost like a low battery, or sometime nothing, no click, no gauges, nothing. Battery is new. I thought maybe the shifter cable was not completely engaged and prevent start, just not sure. Any suggestions?
Look at your battery terminals/cables/connections. I've been stung with a bad ground connection going from the battery to the engine block/frame before.
Worked but I swapped 1st with 3rd relay. 2005 titan diagram said 1st is starter and 3rd "isn't used". From the left and top row. The row with 5 relays.
that happened to me today. My truck suddenly stopped in the middle of me driving it. Then it started again after a few attempts and all my dash lights started flickering. The forums for Titans helped me solve my problem. I went to Nissan and bought the ECM relay replacement fuse. In my case it was colored green and second from left relay. Come to find out that a while back there was a recall and ECM relay is the common culprit of said symptoms. Took me 5 minutes to install and solved my problem at least for now.
I have a Nissan Titan 07 model it cranks sometimes an sometimes it don't there isn't a check engine light on an crank shaft sensor I'm thinking is going bad but the symptoms don't match.does anyone have any suggestions Also I have checked the fuse box behind battery still no reasonable answers
do you have a rust problem on your truck. Today i saw a Nissan NV2500 high top with less than 5 years usage but with a lot of rust on the front of the top. No effort was done to hide this, perhaps the owner was wanting to do negative publicity. With all the known problems for the Titan engine, if you add the choice to buy it again, would you buy it again or buy something else one of your friend was very happy with
Well, after 11 years the paint has started to wear off of my truck. I intend to paint it. I have not had any of the "known" problems with my 5.6 engine. Back in '05 I asked a local mechanic what was the best truck to buy and he replied "Ford, Chevy and Dodge all have their inherent problems". He never mentioned brand x, y or z. So to answer your question is "Yes" I would buy Nissan again. If I were you, I would go to a dealership and talk to one of the mechanics (not the manager) and ask what kinds of repairs/cost he sees on said vehicle(s)to get an idea of what you are looking at.
I did this to rectify a stalling issue. I first tried the auto active test to determine an ipdm issue, and the test wouldn't run. After swapping the relays, the test ran through. My issue is that I'm in the boonies, and the part store is an hour away. How safe is it to drive that far with the fog relay in the ecm slot?
thank you sir my buddy was stranded and I was able to find this video and give him instructions over the phone...it worked thank you so much.
just to clarify he switched the second relay from the left with the one on the far right.
Thanks for letting me know!
Thank you a bundle, purchased two from the dealer five dollars each. Thank you Merry Christmas. You saved mine. 1 million likes.
Thank you so much. Mine is green and I was about to replace my starter. You saved me! Mine was $20 and I got the last one
Do you have a nissan armada?
sir you have just save over $800 bucks. I thank you for taking your time on sharing this with us.

According to the diagram that I have, you just replaced the starter relay with the ignition relay. The fog lamp relay is bottom right.

He has a Titan, not Armada
Is there a link to Amazon or Ebay to get the right relay?
I replaced the ipdm & the starter on mine. Ran great for about 2 days, then the same issue & now I’m stuck. What could it be?
Would this be a cause for a cold no start?
In winter it will crank fine but won't run I've heard it's the ecm or ipdm.

Well sir, I'm gonna try that my titan 04, has just started the issue of not cranking over here and there especially in cold weather we just had here eastern US. I hope this corrects the problem. I really if I don't have too change the starter. But if I do I must.
Thanks a million sir my respects you save me some money 💴
Do you have the relay number that controls steering wheel/drivers seat/dome lights and lift gate ? 2010 QX56
no disrespect but you're changing the starter relay and the ignition out the ECM and the fog lights are on the bottom row second one over is ECM and the last one fog lights
You Sir are correct. I screwed up. Thanks.
I have annotated the video to reveal the correct relay, indeed is the 4th one over, on the bottom, from the left (front fog lamp relay).
Thanks again.
Thanks Lane!
So is the starter the relay on the left which is being replaced? The diagram on my relay box doesn't name them.
What does the start sound like when the relay has gone bad already? Does the engine keep turning without igniting?
@@LegacyBridge If you go to the parts department at your Nissan dealership request Control Unit -1P 284B7-CW29E. That is the relay you will need to correct this problem. You will have to go through three or four engine start engine stop sequences before the problem goes completely away, but this is the relay you need.
My issue was the Cam Position Sensor. $327.00 for the sensor.
Thank you very helpful
Hey where do you find that specific part?? I can’t find it on the autozone website or any auto store near me , is this something that needs to be ordered like on Nissan website or any other car part website
What relay is it though?
Is this the starter relay
Thanx for responding. Vids helped and I'm back in action.
Where’s the diagram that tells you what those relays are? I can’t find it anywhere
The black box lid has the diagram on the inside.
ECM relay is green and on bottom row.. 2nd from Left
OMG THANK YOU
Great job❤
What was the part number for that relay? Thanks for the video
Cw29e
What year is your truck?
I just tried that and it didn't work. It all started when I was checking the radio fuse.
So I've just did this and I've went from clicking to ni key response at all
I would try switching it back to the way you found it. Also, it could be the solenoid/battery/key/ground.
@@homesteadprepper so I initially pulled and replaced the starter one without replacing the fog lamp one.
Now I replaced the fog lamp one with the bad starter one and everything went straight away.
Weirdly also my odometer reading which shows only the lower half of the numbers usually started showing the complete readout for a brief period. 🤷♂️
Gonna try this tomorrow just noticed my truck is starting to act up
Thank you!!! This video get me home last night
Is it the same on a qx56 boxes are the same going to try in the am
is your truck just clicking like you can hear the solenoid engaging but the starter not engaging before you replaced the relay?
No clicking. Just nothing.
What you just described sounds like another problem.
Yeah, mine is doing that clicking stuff, and nothing seems to fix it.
hello guys. i 'm not a tech..but i try. all of these.
check all fuses....okay
swamp those relay's.....okay
replace the fuel pump...waist of money..because the old one i try it out and is good...
so right now. i can't get the fuel pump yo work...
some one have something else...??
I would check to see if you actually have 12 volts at the fuse and then see if you have voltage at the relay, then at the fuel pump. You could have a bad wire or more likely a bad ground. I've also seen batteries go bad that still real 12.5 volts with a meter but have no amperage to run things.
Mine is intermittent, almost like a low battery, or sometime nothing, no click, no gauges, nothing. Battery is new. I thought maybe the shifter cable was not completely engaged and prevent start, just not sure. Any suggestions?
Look at your battery terminals/cables/connections. I've been stung with a bad ground connection going from the battery to the engine block/frame before.
Thank you so much good bless you 🙏🏼
Nope not it for my QX56... but thx
Worked but I swapped 1st with 3rd relay. 2005 titan diagram said 1st is starter and 3rd "isn't used". From the left and top row. The row with 5 relays.
that happened to me today. My truck suddenly stopped in the middle of me driving it. Then it started again after a few attempts and all my dash lights started flickering. The forums for Titans helped me solve my problem. I went to Nissan and bought the ECM relay replacement fuse. In my case it was colored green and second from left relay. Come to find out that a while back there was a recall and ECM relay is the common culprit of said symptoms. Took me 5 minutes to install and solved my problem at least for now.
What model is your truck?
I have a Nissan Titan 07 model it cranks sometimes an sometimes it don't there isn't a check engine light on an crank shaft sensor I'm thinking is going bad but the symptoms don't match.does anyone have any suggestions
Also I have checked the fuse box behind battery still no reasonable answers
It could be the selenoid on your starter.
do you have a rust problem on your truck. Today i saw a Nissan NV2500 high top with less than 5 years usage but with a lot of rust on the front of the top. No effort was done to hide this, perhaps the owner was wanting to do negative publicity. With all the known problems for the Titan engine, if you add the choice to buy it again, would you buy it again or buy something else one of your friend was very happy with
Well, after 11 years the paint has started to wear off of my truck. I intend to paint it.
I have not had any of the "known" problems with my 5.6 engine.
Back in '05 I asked a local mechanic what was the best truck to buy and he replied "Ford, Chevy and Dodge all have their inherent problems". He never mentioned brand x, y or z.
So to answer your question is "Yes" I would buy Nissan again.
If I were you, I would go to a dealership and talk to one of the mechanics (not the manager) and ask what kinds of repairs/cost he sees on said vehicle(s)to get an idea of what you are looking at.
Would This work on a 2010?
I did this to rectify a stalling issue. I first tried the auto active test to determine an ipdm issue, and the test wouldn't run. After swapping the relays, the test ran through. My issue is that I'm in the boonies, and the part store is an hour away. How safe is it to drive that far with the fog relay in the ecm slot?
I myself would chance it.
Great video. Thanks
