Re: Intermittent unlocking / key ID issue

I have some diagnostics for the Intelligent Key (I-Key) system. Not that I could do anything much with it. What you appear to indicate is intermittency of the I-Key to Body Control Module (BCM) communications. I'll try to express some logic here: (some shooting in the dark) 1. Usually key problems a...

Re: Signs of a faulty bcm?

If Nissan run diagnostics again they may wish to charge you again. I've had that game with BMW along with attempted charging for extended diagnostic procedure. Extended Diagnostics = Loud Alarm Bells. Refuse and ask for the diagnostic file or printout PDQ "please". Formal details, not verb...

Re: heated front windscreen

N-tec doesn't come with a heated screen. I especially asked for it. Not as an option neither. Only heated seats but not the windscreen... Those embedded wire matrix heater screens can block GPS signals...dead easy. For mobile phone/navigator GPS on the dash that is. I suppose camera view/pics throu...

Re: Signs of a faulty bcm?

1. Tricky Key security/Start Stop problems are often battery related. Only Nissan can check those functions fully with their special test box (CONSULT), but they can't say they don't know. Go elsewhere....and/or complain to Nissan Customer Services UK. 2. Can't see that bulbs would blow by a short.....
