Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Cars / October 20052002 Maxima Sunroof Fuse
Does anyone know which fuse controls the sunroof in the 2002 Maxima? My local dealership didn't know and 1-800-NISSAN1 actually REFUSED to tell me whether there was a technical manual available that documents the fuse. On 9/20/05 10:12 AM, in article 1127229132.426192.251960@g49g2000cwa.googlegroups.com, "mashuganah@iwon.com" > Does anyone know which fuse controls the sunroof in the 2002 Maxima? > My local dealership didn't know and 1-800-NISSAN1 actually REFUSED to > tell me whether there was a technical manual available that documents > the fuse. It is probably a good bet that the person you talked with had no idea what the answer to your question might be. The manual for the '02 Pathfinder lists a fuse, a fusible link and a circuit breaker to check. the Maxima should be similar. Here is the diagnostic info for the pathfinder: Check 7.5A fuse [No. 11, located in fuse block (J/B)], 40A fusible link (letter f, located in fuse and fusible link box) and M145 circuit breaker. Turn ignition switch ³ON² and verify battery positive voltage is present at terminals 2 and 3 of power window relay and terminal 1 of sunroof motor. To get the Maxima service manual, visit: http://www.nissan-techinfo.com/nissan/ You can either order a copy for yourself at that website, or subscribe to access the manuals on-line. The owners manual lists no fuse information and the service manual your link points to costs $210. It's probably cheaper for me to let the dealership look at it than buy the manual. However, as soon as I get a chance, plan to snoop around in the fuse boxes myself. Hmm, maybe right now. > On 9/20/05 10:12 AM, in article > 1127229132.426192.251960@g49g2000cwa.googlegroups.com, "mashuganah@iwon.com" [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > You can either order a copy for yourself at that website, or subscribe to > access the manuals on-line. You can also buy a 24 hour subscription for access to the books on that site for about $20 and download whatever you need. Nissan does seem particularly proud of their service manuals. Most other car makers only charge about $70. But the logic is still the same - if you can solve one major maintenance problem with the book, it will have paid for itself.

[quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > Have you actually priced any of the other import manuals? The toyota ones > are unreal! I have the books for the '00 Acura TL, the '95 Acura Integra and the '96 Honda Odyssey. Each was $70 from Honda, and with somewhat more detail than the Nissan books. The book for the '91 240SX was about $70 from Nissan, but they have gone up. $210 is about what I had to pay for the '02 Pathfinder book. I did find a CD of the book for the '96 I30 on EBAY for $15. Unlikely there will be anything this new on there for that low a price, but it can't hurt to look. I admit that I have no reason to price any of the other makers since I haven't recently had to do anything with any of their cars. > BTW I highly doubt his problem is a "fuse"... I don't think he (she?) has actually given any hints as to what the problem actually is. I have only seen posts asking about fuses and service manuals. >> BTW I highly doubt his problem is a "fuse"... > > I don't think he (she?) has actually given any hints as to what the > problem > actually is. If someone is looking for a "fuse", they are looking for a simple solution for something that has stopped working. Even if it happens to be a fuse, what made it blow? SignatureSteve http://www.atlantaracing.com The problem is that the sunroof will not open. However, it also has a tilt option that still works. So, it won't slide open, but will tilt up. This problem started immediately after replacing the battery which is why I thought a fuse might have blown. On the other hand, it could be the sunroof motor. I thought I'd go with simplest solution first (but it hasn't been simple).

Your cheapest path, assuming you want to work on it yourself, is probably to buy the 24 hour subscription on the Nissan pubs site and download the parts of the manual that relate to the sunroof. Electrical part is in the EL section and the mechanical assembly is in the BT section. I took my car to the dealership and they stated that the sunroof motor needed to be "re-set" as I recently replaced the battery. How lame is that? Designing a motor to require a re-set after battery replacement. I intend to make them show me how to do it when I pick it up.

I just found this out the hard way on my '02 Pathfinder. As soon as the new battery went in, the sunroof would only move about 2 inches no matter what button was pushed. Working it all the way back and all the way closed (2 inches at a time) and it started working again as soon as it had moved through the whole cycle. >On 10/10/05 8:06 AM, in article >1128949613.544981.47640@f14g2000cwb.googlegroups.com, "mashuganah@iwon.com" [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] >inches at a time) and it started working again as soon as it had moved >through the whole cycle. yes that realy sucks! nissan has a few really unuasual querks lately. The new Z has a problem with the windows. The windows sit in a chanell at the top when the door is closed. as you pull on the door latch in instantly drops the window a 1/4 inch and when the door is shut it pops back up in the chanell. unfortunatly if the battery goes dead the windows wont drop and you cant open the door or you will break the glass. Problem is you need to get inside to pop the hood. I left Nissan just a few months after the new Z came out and I dont know how they are addressing the issue. Spat |
