Re: heater blower problem.

Hi, I'm having a problem with my heater blower and need to replace the heater blower resistor, can you tell me exactly where it is located and what you did (did you take any pictures?) and did you disconnect your battery before replacing the resistor?
Many thanks :D

Regards

Dave

Re: AC Problem

Daewar, if you're considering keeping the Qashqai for longer I would definately consider an extended warranty. Since mine expired (31/12/2017) my FIAMM battery failed (stop/start error) Nissan CS, true to form, dismissed replacement FOC as it was outside the warranty period (by a mere 2 weeks!!!), f...

Re: AC Problem

It appears that my faith in Nissan CS doing the right thing was sadly misplaced. Following a protracted series of conversations with my Case Manager , to paraphrase him, failure of condensers is not unique to Nissan and after all what should I expect from a car that is over 3 years old (3yrs 8 month...

Re: Smart Key Problems

Ive had the same symptoms as described, it was caused by the battery in the key fob needing replacing.
Its a simple process, there's a video on YouTube

all thats needed is a flathead screwdriver and a new CR2032 Battery

Re: Battery problems

Mine was replaced a few weeks a go by my local main agent, car was just out if warranty but managed to get it r...

Re: Wont Start + Rac + New Battery

Decided to get the diagnostic done at Nissan Wirral for peace of mind as sods law would certainly apply during this current cold spell. Anyway apparently the diagnostic indicated the battery was holding a good charge and they had to reset a fault related to something to do with excessive use of the ...

Re: Wont Start + Rac + New Battery

Further to my earier post, Just started car up and the stop start system failure warning has disappeared? Now wondering if the car just needed a good run as it had been stationery for a while, however this isn't the first time the stop start failure has displayed. It's going to cost me about £70 for...
