Hey guys! I just bought my first Nissan, a used 2005 Quest. There are several issues I've noticed and I was wondering is anyone can tell me if they are connected. My rear door will not open/close with any of the door buttons (remote included), the side door is the same way. Neither washer fluid pump works and I'm assuming the subwoofer (I guess it has one) does not work based upon all the "highs" and no "lows" in the sound. I've pulled every fuse I can find from the 3 different fuse locations. (If there are more please let me know). I have no clue to check the relays or larger square looking fuses. Does any one have any idea where to start? I've looked online to see if I can find a listing of exactly what each fuse is responsible for and can not find anything. I would appreciate any help you can give. Thank you!

mac, could be that , after maybe eliminating fuses, power "actuators" in either/both doors not be "right". If a newly bought vehicle - I would get the trim off the easier of two doors , to "jump-test" it's actuator , and NOW more importantly you may
FULLY inspect the door's INSIDES to SEE IF CAR WAS in a FLOOD (damage) AREA and had been under water ?? Do this to other door too.Gotta know - you know. :eek: Not to be a wiseguy ,but Let's see , Katrina was - when !!!!! :rotflmao

You made the worst purchase ever. Sorry. The only thing worse is an old VW.

The power doors on a Quest are notorious for issues, including randomly opening on the HW. Can be any sort of electric problem.

The slide door has that huge hinge in the middle, it's prone to rusting and seizing. Did on mine. Needs a lot of elbow grease to lubricate and restore, so probably worth buying that part new if it's not too much $$. When the middle hinge rusts, the cable cuts through plastic pulleys and destroys them.
