Volvobrick Supersonic March 28, 2021 Share March 28, 2021 Maybe ignition related (coil, plugs). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watwheels Supersonic March 28, 2021 Share March 28, 2021 Even if TS has an OBD code reader he has to know how to interpret the fault code. Sometimes it takes experience to know what triggered the fault code or codes. It might not be as straightforward as what the fault code tells you. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simplest is try to do a “reset” by unplugging battery connectivity and wait a while before connecting back, or other methods specific to Nissan vehicles. If CEL is still on and still encounter same problems, call for tow truck and send to agent/workshop. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I encountered before and had to tow my Sunny to WS. Faulty throttle something, cannot remember. WS had to source from scrape yard a replacement but the 2nd hand part conked out within a week. WS replaced it again, this time FOC but after a long wait as part was hard to come by. In the end, we decided to ditch our 11 yo Nissan Sunny ...... sad lor. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I give an example that is not related to TS issue. Sometimes a loose vacuum hose or a loose connection may trigger several fault codes. It might not be a part's problem, or sensor problem. Not every car part has a sensor attached to it so this is what I meant by not as straightforward as what the fault codes tells you. Not that easy lah. Otherwise your mechanic jiak sai already. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For cable usually the wire cable has stretched over time, that can be easily rectified. For the electronic controlled is replacing the sensor attached to the throttle body. Now all the new cars are electronically controlled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TS tried to accelerate but vehicle not moving not necessarily. cannot accelerate is limp home mode. everything is cut back. can be coils, throttle body. unlikely fuel pump as my experience with fuel pumps so far, is they are either working or not. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
