2005 Pathfinder IPDM issues
Last year I was without my vehicle from Oct. to Jan. before finally replacing the IPDM. I went to several forums, posting question, and then watching replies, before deciding to replace IPDM. Seems that only the 2005's have this issue. Now the end of Oct. this year it is beginning to have same running rough issues. Has anyone else had rough running or non start issues and replaced the IPDM? The boards were backordered last year and we had to wait to get one in order to replace. I just an't imagine that the same thing has happened to me again! Love my Pathfinder, but am about to get rid of it because I can't afford these repairs.
Re: 2005 Pathfinder IPDM issues
I recently had the samw problem. It is the ecm relay on the ipdm board. There is a recall going into effect Dec. 2010. Until it goes into effect you can swap the ECM relay and the Fog Lamp relay. Titans have the same problem. http://www.titanspot.com/Titan/index.ph ... =9442&st=0

Re: 2005 Pathfinder IPDM issues
Living in Nigeria and the IPDM of my Nissan pathfinder 2005 is among those supposed to be recalled. What do I do to have a current one?
