Re: Tail light of the passengers side not working

Apparently Nissan have agreed to cover the new ipdm. This leaves me with a bill of over £300 for labour etc. I have agreed.

Re: Tail light of the passengers side not working

Update: the Nissan garage (different one) have investigated and discovered that somehow the license plate light that blew, caused the IPDM Intelligent Power Distribution Module (to be damaged and needs to be replaced. This will be a significant cost. The garage will see if Nissan will contribute to ...

Re: Tail light of the passengers side not working

Yes, Possibly so. I took one other photo and theres a slot in the plastic, but the main purpose of the slot is to mount it on a plastic spine built into the main casing. I tried a couple of times to lever it with a flat screwdriver but it wasn’t doing anything that I could see.

Re: Tail light of the passengers side not working

I might have a go at removing the one that’s not working just in case i can spot a loose wire or something. A friend suggested contacting an auto-electrician who might ...

Re: Tail light of the passengers side not working

Thank you for these suggestions. I think the Nissan garage tested the fuses, they had my car for over a week and looked at the easily accessible wiring, but are mystified. I am puzzled by their inability to locate the fault. The wanted to charge me for the investigation but the manager didn’t charge...

Re: Tail light of the passengers side not working

I have the exact same issue. The Nissan garage suggests removing the dashboard to find a broken wire (cost £800 minimum. So, i am looking to you, my fellow Qashqai owners, for a solution. 🙏
