Overview

Thank you I will pass that on

The code means 'Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) Heater Control Circuit Low (Bank 1, Sensor 2)' This sensor (at the back of the catalytic converter) may be faulty and is showing a low reading for the efficiency of the cat. This could be that there is a slight exhaust blow (a bad gasket / joint) in the exhaust system and this is causing the issue A rag held tight over the tailpipe at the rear of the car and listen for any hissing from the exhaust towards the front of the car to establish any leaks that may be present. (obviously Health & Safety needs observing when carrying out this test)

Hi my 2014 Micra failed its emissions test. No lights were showing but on checking got a fault code P0037. Mechanic changed both lambada sensors (not Nissan originals) and the emissions are worse! Another mechanic says it is probably because we did not use Nissan original parts. Before I spend even more money can anyone advice please. Thanks

Cheers Leveller I’ll have a look at that it’s driving me up the wall lol only does it when stationary with foot on brake and when in reverse.

Chris KA. We had the knocking sound when the car was stationary and put into D or R but not when it was in P with just the engine ticking over. The knocking also tended to stop once the car started moving up to speed. After some investigation we found that as the revs lowered when put into D or R it was causing the air intake pipe to vibrate and knock against the engine. It has been zip tied to the cable loom just behind it and the knocking has now stopped. Hopefully yours may be as simple.

Leveller no still not worked out what’s causing it but I’ve also noticed the same knocking sound when in reverse gear.

Did you resolve this? I've had something very similar which we seem to have resolved.

Check the battery power leads and connections Pay particular attention to the earth leads from the battery to the engine, gearbox and chassis for breaks or corrosion

Good evening folks, i am new to this forum and have a quick quetion if any one could hekp me please. I was driving along this evening and my micra cut out and lost power, it now wont start and the ignition will not come on. My battery is working fine as i have good lights Can anyone advise me please to what might be wrong Thanks Peter

I’ve just realised it does the same knocking sound when reversing too.

The ECU unit from an Auto K13 2016 / 2019 - I have read that it will work in a manual K13 2012 / 2014 ( ok you have to change the ECU Wiring loom to allow for the ABS unit which appears to be the only main difference.) The fuse box is the same and as you are not changing the engine wiring harness to the injectors etc that should be fine The interior wiring loom i know will have to be changed to a newer one, again, it should not matter if the harness is from an auto or manual, so long as you have the correct BCM and Push Start (if required) Has anyone done this successfully ? or tried and failed and gone back to just swapping out the ECU unit for a newer manual one ? - Really interested in hearing your thoughts.

hi i have a blaupunk stereo but i dont have the stereo code for the stereo anywhere, the serial nu,mber i : BP334947250113 NISSAN NO : 7643349318 ANY HELKP WOULD BE GREATFULLY APPRECIATED.

It certainly does sound like that is the reason and would be surprised if it didn't sustain some damage when the plug electrode dropped into the cylinder You could carry out a cylinder leak-down test to determine that it is valves or piston damage

This is due to a internal module problem with the back up power ,check that the connection is good remove and clean with contact cleaner ,still having issue then have a new module installed and programmed This came from a Google search, worth checking all connections you can find under the bonnet, starting at the battery and work your way out from there. Don't forget to check earth leads and connections Also check the battery is strong, engine may start but volts could have dropped low when cranking the engine over and this could have flagged the fault code

Hi all. My first post here and I'm asking a question about the ex wife's car that is a micra k14 that was manufactured in 2017. Its only done 28k and has developed a bit of a issue and I hope some of you may have more of an idea about the architecture of these engines. So the story goes a few weeks back she calls me saying the car has broken down after she drove it for 22 miles with a misfire. When I arrived I found that cylinder number three spark plug had completly disintegrated leaving just the porcelain debris under the coil pack and the lower porcelain and the core was missing presumably mashed up and ejected. I removed the cam cover to remove what was left of the plug on the roadside, hoovered out the cylinder to check no debris and fitted a new plug and coil pack. The car started right up but did seem to have a bit of a tick it didn't have before. I rechecked for debris and drove it home. Over the last few weeks the tick has developed into a knock and yesterday started to throw a pre cat lambda fault. Lambda sensor is fine so guessing it's running rich, new plugs look nice and clean with no major evidence of running rich. Did a compression test and one and two are a healthy 215psi but number three is 150psi so well down. So oil or coolant loss and no major crank case pressure so thinking maybe a busted valve from eating the sparkplug. What's everyone's thoughts? TIA Tim

Anyone ... ? wiring diagram telling you what the colours are and where and what they are for ?

Air bag warning light flashing. The fault code is P1611 which is isolator or battery fault. Nothing to do with the air bag. The car starts and runs fine. Any suggestions please.

Maybe the wiring has broken in the rubber gaiter leading to the tailgate pull back the rubber each end and inspect the wiring

The tailgate warning light has come on in my 2020 Micra Accenta. As soon as I move in the car within 10 yards the tailgate releases itself from the lock. Any other Micro owner had the same problem?

Hey Folks. Sitting in the middle of the bush in Thailand, in the process of upgrading my March K13 - Does anyone have a Dummys Guide or Diagram showing what the wires do or are for, this is the connector into the speedo cluster. eg: Blue top = ABS Light etc - This is a for 2018 wiring harness. I would also be looking for the same for a 2012 harness. Object of this is, I am still looking at various methods to upgrade my instrument cluster and if it means stripping and chasing wires to remove, then that is what i am going to have to do. My car is a 2012 manual with the speedo being run off the Gearbox sensor, so in my mind and I may be very wrong here, if I can find and chase the same wire here and get it pointed to the gearbox rather than the ABS system, it may work in theory ... unless i am completely missing the point on this in which case i will hold my hands up and go back doing exhaust system and bodywork. I have heard you can use a Dakota Digital Convertor, but finding a 2nd hand one here is impossible. Ps, I have the full interior harness and can get my hands on any other parts / wiring etc pretty easily if i needed anything else.

Hello everyone I’ve just bought a 2005 k12 silver Micra It’s done over 280,000 miles but does have a few issues, hoping you can help me with these Problem No.1, and the most major one, whilst driving, the power steering light came on and I lost power steering completely. I straight away turned the car off and on again and it came back. This happened after 10 miles again, so it’s not a one time thing What is wrong here and what do I need to do? Problem No.2 Radio doesn’t work, like at all No screen at all, nothing Wondering if there’s a fuse at fault or if there is something I can measure Problem No.3 The surround of the heater knob is cracked, but couldn’t find a cheap replacement anywhere online, any ideas? Problem No.4 The blower motor packed up whilst we were driving home, it worked while we were inspecting and on the drive, it stopped. I think it’s the motor because I can feel air at the vents, but no air is being blown out. I’ve read online that these are a pain to replace, are they?

Hi all,I am looking for a spare wheel for my wife's k14 N sport which has 17 inch wheels,can I use a wheel from a different Nissan? Thanks.

Thanks Chrisp I’ll check this out 👍

Hi Chris This sounds like the baring in the banana arm on my 350Z.

Thanks Trevor the clicking sound is when stood still at lights etc. while I have my foot on the brake, when I release the brake pedal to pull away of put handbrake on the clicking sound goes.
