04 Pathfinder 4.0 v6 wont start no fuel

[FishingCharles]

Hey everyone thanks for letting me join i need some guidance and help

I have a 2004 Nissan Pathfinder 4.0 V6 that was running but would randomly go straight to idle on me while driving then would have to pull over to turn it off then restart it and it would be fine for a little then boom it would do it again then i would have to repeat the process over and so after some info from some folks i went ahead and changed all the sensors and the spark plugs and fuel injectors. now every time i go to start the car it turns over but never starts, i went ahead and spray ether in the intake/air filter and it started but did not stay running so im getting spark. i believe its not getting any fuel. im just not sure if its the sensors or what? im not sure if its a fuse issue or if its the fuel system? also is there a fuel pump fuse and were is the fuel pump fuse located so i can check that?
any Help is much appreciated! just need to know if im doing something wrong or if i didn't do something? and what can i do?

Please Help

Start by checking the Fuel Pump and Injector fuses.

Last I checked, the 2004 Pathfinder still had the VQ35DE engine in it. It was the last year of the R51 platform.

Last year of the R50. R51 was '05~12, R52 '13~'20. No '21 MY, R53 '22 to present.

It sounds like you may have created more problems than you had. What sensors did you change? Since your '04 is a "drive-by-wire" throttle system, the only two things that I would have looked at first would have been the Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor and the Electric Throttle Control Actuator. I'm guessing if these crapped out your throttle system wouldn't know where it was so it closed to the idle position. My '02 uses a throttle cable so I'm not really familiar with how the "drive-by-wire" system works when it doesn't work.

Yes. My mistake. You'd think after driving a 2002 Pathfinder for 19 years, I'd get it right...haha.
2004 was the last year for R50. It still had the 3.5 engine though.

Typos happen, no biggie. I was just clarifying for others.

okay i will look into that do you have any idea where those fuses would be located at? Thank you!

You want to check fuses 16 (battery) and 17 (ignition) in the cabin fuse block, and 62-63 (both battery) in the underhood fuse-and-link box. You can find the layouts on pages 3~4 of the Foldout here:
