If the car runs, I see no reason to tow it. Drive it to the dealership, and have them adjust it ASAP. It's probally more than just a fuse...

Thanks for the advice man, but if i trade the car in a few years wont they be like you did mileage fraud..im alright with cars i can do basic stuff but I didnt get a manual or anything with this car wheres the fuse box located? because another thing i realized was when the milage stopped rolling there was a unsual click on the cd player so im thinking its a fuse or faulty wire...please help do you have diagram or anything i can do to check atleast the basics before i drive like half the way down to that place its pretty far.

I can post a pic of the diagram, but just be carefull...I'd hate for the dealer to say it was your fault. I'll try and post it tonight (the PDF file is at home...)

Which Dealer, Roswell Infiniti? They were always pretty nice to me, but then again I never dealt with their service department. I got mine from Infiniti of Gwinnett, hopefully their service department is cool.

I couldn't find any diagrams that have the odometer...

+1 for Infiniti of Gwinnett though! There is also a dealer in Union City that may help you.

Download the FSM in pdf format from Nissan site or other web locations.

Happy education, seems like it would be easier to let dealership repair, as looking at the schematics: no fuse involved if the car still functions without a MIL or ABS light.

There is a memory location inside ecu where the true mileage is permanently recorded, the dealer can read this and set display correctly.

You cannot escape potential tampering charges........good idea to find out what the real mileage is so you can go after previous owner if serious desceptancies are there............they warrantied a true mileage during transfer.

Or did you do something that caused the odometer to stop?

Are you 100% sure There is a memory location inside ecu where the true mileage is permanently recorded?
