ABS sensor is a common problem with 02Q. With 96K miles in my 02Q not a single error code showed up to date. Knock on wood. And I have owned this for 5 years.

OBDII will get you started.

Welcome to Nico and good luck.

Nissan introduced OBDII in slow steady stages.The first 5 years were very very insensitive to faults. It took longer to show up and minor faults were ignored.By 2002 the OBDII was actually compliant with all SAE requirements thus more faults showed up more frequently.

Same thing happened in early Q45 with 90 immune to almost everything whereas 94 started showing more and more.

CPU got faster and better as model progressed and could actually spend time checking things instead of putting everything into running engine.
