NISSAN MAXIMA NO START / NO COMMUNICATION DIAGNOSIS
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 มี.ค. 2020
- In today's case study we have a 2011 Nissan Maxima with a 3.5l V6 engine. The vehicle is a No crank, No start and a No communication. Follow along as I take you step by step through my diagnostic and troubleshooting process to determine how a blown fuse, a short circuit and a torn belt is causing this vehicle to become a "No start".
Thank you for watching! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
I absolutely love TH-cam my car has been down for about 6 months with the same problems. long story short I ran across this video and got my car up and running within a matter of minutes. Great information and video 👍🏾
😅😮😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Brother I will watch all your videos till you get back up from all the stuff you've been through... been a subscriber for quite long now, blessings and the best for you mate
Hi
Learn so much from you ❤🙏🏾
I swear you are a bad man when it comes to your talent. You are truly amazing. You are blessed. Keep doing what you do.
This is exactly what is happening to my Car, 2010 Maxima S. Took to firestone, they only tired to start the car and not give a complete diagnosis. They won't fix and told me that it was a dealer issue. So I will have to tow it back home and do the fix myself. Thanks for the video.
Eric, I am glad to see you back on TH-cam with the Advanced Level Auto. Once again, with your cool, calm definitive approach, you have found the customers problem, repaired it correctly and educated us non-mechanics along the way. Thank you, praying your future gets brighter and brighter.
This guy is really good. He described everything in detail and makes it understandable. Terrific video.
*Nissan Just called; They want YOU BACK!!* 😁
*Good Job on the Diagnosis and Repair* ‼️ 👏🏾👏🏾
We’re glad you’re back in action, sir!
You can’t keep a good man down!
Bro nice to see you again hopefully all as well
Wait is over... thanx Eric. nice to have you back.
Awesome case study and diagnosis Eric. Keep on sharing your automotive knowledge and ability with the world.
Good to see you back brother ...I swear bro I know it's experience but DAM sometimes it's like you're a magician how you solve this problems!!!
So great to have you back!!! Enjoyed this case study. Praying your personal situation improves. With your great attitude confident you will succeed. Stay healthy is the name of the game right now.
A true indication no matter what you go through in life...so long as you're healthy no one can steal what's in your head..keep up the amazing work mate..
And just as important, don't let anyone or anything steal your joy!!! Great diagnostic and repair on this vehicle!
This was far the best video showing the 2010 or any of the years that built the same exactly how to replace the headlamps assembly kit step by step instructions which is very clear and concise. It took me approximately 2.5 hours at the most to replace both sides of the vehicle headlamps.
A truly and honest mechanic, hard to find mechanics like him
Eres digno de admirar Eric. Mucho conocimiento y talento. Dios aprieta pero no ahorca, a seguir la lucha hacia adelante hermano!!!
I really love your attention to detail and your willingness to take people on the journey. Trouble shooting is an art, this is art.
“ I’ll be back” you never said you would be but you are .....still one of the smartest techs around..nice to see you back.
Just wanted to say thank you bro! Your direction saved me money and time! My fuse was the case, I replaced it and my car is back and running! I really appreciate you! 💯💪🏽🚀🚀🚀
It is amazing that such a small problem shuts down the whole vehicle. Love watching these videos because we get to learn how complex modern vehicles really are these days with chips and computers ~ not simple like when I was a much younger man when all you had to do was check whether you had fuel and a spark. Great work, keep it up!
That's only one of many do not buy Nissan 😂
I specialize on Nissan and Infiniti vehicle diagnostics and dude this is a Excellent diagnostic video of finding the root cause and confirming the repair. And yes just a FYI for those that don’t know the (IPDM) intelligent power distribution module has built-in logic or protocol program
that turns on the cooling fans as a failsafe feature when it senses a major issue to help prevent possible engine overheat. Keep up the good diagnoses!
2011 Nissan Maxima: Over the course of years before I bought the car from my sister the battery would randomly leave her stranded (or so she thought) but it's odd that the car would start just fine and after a short drive of perhaps three minutes and about fifteen minutes of her shopping the battery suddenly dies when she gets back in (her job and the store were very close so it was odd that it would crank once but fail less than 30 minutes later). I buy the car and change the alternator and the electrical connector for the alternator cause the plastic was brittle and broken, I did this cause the battery would randomly be drained after the car sat for weeks or sometimes only days. Car works fine for a few weeks (not driven regularly though) and I find the battery is still draining cause it's dead one day, but I charge it up . A couple of weeks later I got in the car and it cranked just fine but then after I put it in reverse all the warning lights come on and the engine wouldn't rev up in reverse. I put it in drive and the motor will rev up and move the car, put it back in reverse and get nothing. I buy a new battery and the car is cranking and working correctly, after a trip the battery and brake light start to flutter on and off but I make it home with no issues. Now the battery and brake light keep coming on but the car is working fine, though I note that if I rev the motor up I can make the light go out after a few times reving the engine. Opinion?
Really glad to see you’re still making videos man love that even though you’re going through a lot of shit you still provide us with good content please don’t stop man love seeing good techs and good guys out here paying forward to the next generation of techs
Glad to have you back. Love your stuff. Praying for you and your family. Keep going forward never give up.
Eric great to see you back hope things are improving for you. Your videos are great. I will watch everyone you put out. Hang in brother wish you the best ❤️
Wow, exactly the issue this 2013 maxima I’m working on was having. Thank you so much for the video, sir, you earned my like and subscribe
EDIT: a few days later when the customer approved the diag time, I began investigating all wires and wiring diagrams to find all wires that were in the ECM circuit looked fine. I noticed the fuse blew every time you turned the key to the on position. unplugged the three main plugs on the ECM and began to turn the key to the on position w/out the fuse blowing. Concluded ECM has internal short.
Dude I'm a heavy duty diesel mechanic which mean to my family I can work on anything. This exact same thing happened to my nieces altima. So I started my normal diag checks, noticed the belt, hooked my tablet up got the same code as you when you checked and before I went down the rabbit hole if checking why the ecm wasn't communicating was like let me see what TH-cam university has to say. And show nuff same wire but further up where I couldn't really see it until I went and double checked after I saw this. Same issue. Bad ass bro you rock
very informative and precise, no wanna be comedian, no dogs to show, just talked clearly about the problem and solved the problem.
Dang man.
Cant believe u close shop, you are great my friend.
Thanks
Good to see you back hope all is well 👍 you have great communication and fantastic diagnostic skills your calling is in teaching great video thanks for sharing from 🇨🇦
diagnose like a master mechanic. Thanks for sharing your electrical knowledge! hopefully, see more video diagnose like this in the future!
Great video! hard to believe a poorly installed belt could cause a communication issue but you showed how it happened. Excellent
Back in action, like a boss :) That was an excellent diagnostic, very thorough. I notice that in many of your videos, you're fixing failed repair attempts by either previous owners or garages, and this was no exception. Some people should not be working on vehicles lol
good case,im a nissan tech , like you,thanks to keep us aware of things like this,good job
Brother, I was so thankful to find this video! I had the EXACT same problem on my 2008 Altima. You saved me a lot of diagnosis time. Thank you!
Thank you for explaining how you are diagnosing these issues. Also, appreciate your efforts to make sure we can see the issues. Your videos are very instructional and interesting!
Another great video! I like the way you describe the steps you take in finding the problems. Keep up the good work!
Great video brother! Another trick for intermittent shorts to ground is to put a substitute load in place of the fuse. A light bulb or buzzer that illuminates or buzzes when the short is present proves real handy for this kind of detection. Plus it's safe to carry that unintended load. You can even add a fuse holder to your test light harness so you have double circuit protection. Way to test & not guess!
Well done. Everything was clear and concise. I learned something today in 30 minutes. The secret sauce to video imo is that its clean and straight to the point which means you can retain it! Well done bro
Awesome to see that you are back working and making videos again. Nice to have some new content while “sheltering in place”. I hope things are looking up for you,; as others have said, you have a real talent for understanding and teaching. Thanks for sharing your skills.
Welcome back Bro, so satisfied to see you❤
Thanks for sharing this awesome case study, really informative and helpful video on ECU powers & grounds👍
Looking forward to more content from you😉
Stay Blessed🙏
Whoever changed the belt missed one groove, then the belt finally broke where it was hanging over the edge. Great videos, thank you.
Glad to see you working on cars. You always do an amazing job and help me be a better technician. Thank You
Another good diagnosis. Glad to see you didn't get shed of your main tools. It's good not to think too far ahead on Nissans with issues, although there is usually access, time issues in diagnosing many of them. I was a tech at Infiniti from 2000-2006 and Nissan 2007-2016. God bless you.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you! I had this exact issue and couldn't figure it out until I saw this.
Today i have faced same problem. I solved it Alhamdulillah by watching this video.
This video just released me from tension.
Long live bro. Today i am benefitted from ur video.
Thanks a lot bro.
Outstanding video! I wish all mechanics were as thorough as you! Well done!
Thanks for sharing your detective work...
Yeah, owner error in the installation of that serpentine belt really made it hard for the other shop to do this type of diagnostic work. EDIT: or when the driver went over that bump on the road for it to make that mis aligned belt to get worse
Good tip about the ac fans link with the ecu/ecm communication fault
By God's willing you will soon get back on your feet, with much much more good things.
God bless you Bro!!!
God willing
Awesome to see you back! Slowly but surely.....👍👍👍👍👍
Bro this helped me tremendously my scanner blew the eng cont fuse. Thank Jesus for crossing your path
When your bored on a Saturday afternoon you watch Advanced Level Automotive 😁🤙🏻
No start same as 2018 toyota tundra
Besides you're back we missed you
@Sam S oh i get it
Sam S huh?
Master tech in Mississippi,love to see another professional at work,so very few of us out there
This is the best most concise video channel that I've seen for fixing cars this is great
Great video. Lately I've been getting a bunch of "defective" dayco belts. Enough to not install them on customers vehicles anymore. The dayco belts have been either too long or too short. I've lost way too much time waiting on returning belts and getting a new/different brand.
Try Gates Belts, never had a problem.
Installer error .if on belt fails maybe it's defective .if several fail it's installer error.
@@catsbyondrepair after switching to a higher quality brand I haven't had a single problem. Thanks for the laugh kid.
@@michaelherbert8213 dayco is top of the line shit eater. You just don't know to put a belt on correctly.
oh if long just cut it. if too short. just stretch it
Two thumbs up for you myfriend I'm so glad that your back buddy i was wondering when your next video would be out thank your one 👍 mechanic one guestion are nisson good cars i was thinking about buying 2011 maximum what's your Apline please myfriend and thank you for coming back buddy you got it
Nissan are decent quality except for CVT transmission failures.
Sam S that’s exactly what happened to my G-35 Infinity V-6 3.5 Nissan engine and right now is completely torn apart in my local mechanic shop since it loss comprension in all 6 cylinders because with only about around 2,000 miles since my last oil change (i use Amsoil full synthetic oil that is supposed to last 10,000 miles) inexplicably it lost about 2 1/2 cuarts of oil...🤷♂️🤔. Currently the engine has 126,000 miles and was running absolutely perfect with no oil leaks and perfectly sound and healthy.
Sam S .
It's also good to have you back as well...salute.
Glad to see you back! TH-cam suggested your channel to me recently and I enjoy the case studies because some of this stuff is just far out or unbelievable like that Range Rover that wouldn't start because of the waterlogged/shorted out parking sensor module.
I saw that fresh Dayco label on the belt and knew right away what happened. Glad to see you making videos! Hope things are improving for you.
I suppose the condition of the belt would indicate it's age also.
Number
For
@@Cheepchipsable your number
I wish you much luck and good health.I hope you restart your business soon. You should consider smaller garage , like 2 or 3 car garage.
Logical approach, excellent technician. Resolved the issue. Excellent 👍
Perfect illustration. You are indeed a Professional Mechanic.
Wow, if I was the customer and had just changed a part that would be the first thing I would have told the tech after it became disabled.
Dude ...... I have a 2010 frontier 4.0 in my stall and been fighting.... the. Very. Same....... problem
Hope this helps!
@@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO does this only apply to nissan or other vehicle makes as well
@@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO it sure will. Keep up the great work and videos. Anything I can do for you let me know. I own a shop in California. Always looking for great additions to the family.
Always love to watch you!!!! I'm glad you are back!
Very interesting - i enjoyed the way you completed root cause analysis to find the actual issue and not just the symptoms.
You’re an awesome technician, knew a lots of stuff about automotive. Thanks for sharing your expertise. It’s definitely most of DIY people will be aware. That car are still looks new, I noticed the passenger side CV axle boot is ripped and hoping the owner is aware of it.
Welcome back friend ...... I am so glad that you started your job again ..... God is great
it was a very interesting experience. I really appreciated the process which finally led to the detection of the problem at the end. Thank you very much
Great investigation and solution and communications with the customer.
Good to see you working happily bro.without challenges life is nothing.
this video is PURE WEALTH. thanks
We missed you Eric, welcome back in this difficult time for you and for all of us. Regards from Canada to you and to all your subscribers.

Agreed!
The true definition of a car tech, great work bro!
This was one of the best diagnostic videos ever....thank you.
What a great diagnosis. Welcome Back!
You are the best mechanic on the net. Keep it going
WOW, my gs had AC compressor installed today and car cut off while driving. FAN RUNNING as you showed here 4am no but I can't wait to get back to the vehicle. Great presentation very clear, helpful and attention to detail. You have definitely helped my situation. Thanks a million!
We all missed you! Glad you have posted again. Great diag! Tight spaces an easy possibility that they didn't have belt on correctly & took a little while for it to fail. Everyone happy! Thumbs up as always! Stay Covid 19 safe you and your family and all the viewers.
Stuck in the house with this virus BS, and it cheered up my day to see a video from you. Welcome back. Make a video when you can.
He's back. very very good thing
Good to see you back in action.
Thanks for this video I bought a 2010 nissan altima for $500.00 that had the same problem I found this video and watched it and walked out to the nissan altima that I had bought and this video helped me fix the issue because it was the exact same problem
One of the best car repair videos, thank you and keep up the good work
Great to see you back in the saddle again.
Thank you Eric. Good job. Have a blessed and safe week.
Glad to see you back!!!
After watching a 100 video's, this was the best!
An absolutely awesome video! It was like watching a mystery movie. I kept pausing to try to guess the next move. Very educational and I am so glad to see you back up and posting videos again! God Bless
I felt the same! Video had great direction!!
I'm glad I found a channel that is on par with ScannerDanner and schrodingers box. Way to go man. Your videos are freaking awesome.
Your videos never fail to impress, I learned a lot Thank you
Outstanding troubleshooting!
Good job. Very patient and composed. Super helpful.
Excellent work. Thorough and detailed, maybe more than an average Joe needs but better than not enough. Working on my Altima Hybrid no start.
Great diagnosis Eric. Great to see another video by you.
Great diagnosis! You did a superb troubleshooting sequence. Stay safe....
